The Emirates Airlines says it will resume its flight operations to and from Nigeria, from September 11, 2022.

The airline disclosed this in an email to customers.

This development comes almost a week after the federal government of Nigeria released the sum of $265 million to foreign airlines in the country to settle outstanding ticket sales.

“We are pleased to inform you that effective from 11th September 2022, we will reinstate operations of our flights.

“Inbound flights from Dubai to Lagos (EK783) and outbound flights from Lagos to Dubai (EK784) will recommence from Sunday, 11th September 2022.

“Lagos flights after 30th September 2022 will be advised in due course,” the airlines said in the e-mail obtained by vitalnews on Wednesday

The flag carrier of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) suspended flight operations to Nigeria on August 18.

Emirates said the decision was due to its inability to repatriate its earnings in foreign exchange from Nigeria.

On its part, the International Air Transportation Association (IATA) expressed disappointment over the issue, stating that foreign airlines’ funds trapped in Nigeria had increased from $450 million in May to $464 million in July.

The Nigerian government in its defense maintained that the country was facing a forex exchange crisis, and could not meet various obligations, including revenue repatriation by foreign airlines and dollar requests by citizens and businesses.

However, following a torrent of pressure from stakeholders, and also the blocking of Nigerian travel agents from issuing tickets by British Airways, the federal government released $265 million to the airlines.

IATA, while welcoming the move, said it would encourage foreign carriers to continue servicing the country.
