Delivering the closing remarks, the Managing Director, Captain Edward Boyo, highlighted the strategic value of the certification to the airline’s growth trajectory.
“This is a valuable and powerful certification that will guide us going forward. For us, it is more than a principle; it is a way of life”, he stated.
The Executive Director, Mrs. Aduke Atiba, gave the vote of thanks, appreciating the collective commitment of staff and partners whose efforts made the milestone possible.
The ISO 9001:2015 certification complements Overland Airways’ 11-year IOSA certification and its membership of the International Air Transport Association (IATA), further affirming the airline’s adherence to globally recognised safety and quality standards.
Together, these credentials strengthen Overland Airways’ position as a dependable and customer-focused carrier in Nigeria and the region, particularly with the recent reintroduction of its Ibadan, Warri, and Minna routes.
