November 14, (THEWILL) – Following the recent policy of non-issuance of visas to Nigerians by the government of the United Arab Emirates, UAE, Air Peace has announced it will suspend all its operations to Dubai effective Tuesday, November 22, 2022, till further notice.
In a statement issued Monday, the airline stated that “this is consequent upon the persisting non-issuance of visas to Nigerian travellers by the government of the United Arab Emirates and the accompanying inconveniences.”
The airline has promised to provide further updates as the situation progresses.
According to the airline, “Air Peace has been operating into UAE even with the country’s recent travel restrictions, but given the heightening hurdles Nigerian travellers are facing in accessing the country, it has become imperative that we halt our operations to that destination.”
Management of Air Peace has urged passengers, whose flights are affected by this development, to reach out to their call centre team, so as to resolve all issues.
