Overland Airways has announced direct flights between Lagos and Abuja, effective August 9, 2024.
The airline announced that it will be operating over 60 weekly frequencies between the two cities to boost capacity on the route.
This new service operating with Overland Airways’ brand new Embraer E-175 jets in a two-class configuration of Premium and Economy cabins will offer travellers unparalleled convenience and comfort.
Executive Director of Overland, Mrs. Aduke Atiba, said: “The introduction of this new route is part of Overland’s commitment to meeting the growing demand for convenient and comfortable air services between Lagos and Abuja, and relieving Nigerians of the difficulties they are experiencing on the route.
“The addition of the Lagos to Abuja return direct service to our expanding route network represents a significant milestone in our journey to serve our valued customers better.”
Overland Airways in June 2024 took delivery of the second of six Embraer E-175 aircraft ordered since the 2021 Dubai Airshow.
The first E175 was delivered in September 2023 and four more are expected to join the fleet. The E175 is a dual-class 88-seater modern jet aircraft.
“Whether travelling for business or pleasure, we welcome passengers to experience comfort in our premium cabin.
“With the delivery of the latest brand new Embraer E-175 jet aircraft, Overland Airways is set to launch flight services to more destinations in Nigeria and across West Africa.
“We assure our esteemed customers of quality and consistent service that Overland Airways is known for,” Atiba added.
Overland Airways looks forward to serving you across all its destinations with the introduction of these brand new jets with outstanding performance and track record.
