This was disclosed via the airline’s official Facebook
account on Wednesday.
With more seats now available, travellers interested in
flying to London with Air Peace have additional options to choose from.
The statement read, “Due to overwhelming demand and interest
in our London route, we have decided to increase the capacity on the route.
This means that more seats are now available.
“Air Peace would like to thank the Nigerian population, both
in Nigeria and in the United Kingdom, for their support. We do not take it for
granted, and we will be doing our best to continue to make the whole country
proud.”
The airline conducted its inaugural flight to London with
260 passengers aboard a Boeing 777, which has a capacity of 274 seats, on
Saturday. The route will be served daily from Lagos.
The move has disrupted market dynamics, prompting foreign
airlines that previously enjoyed exclusivity on the route to reconsider their
pricing strategies.
The Chief Executive Officer of Air Peace, Allen Onyema,
revealed that tickets for Lagos-London flights with his company were sold out
until September.
During an interview with Arise TV on Monday, Onyema stated
that the airline currently possesses over 30 aircraft and has placed orders for
an additional 33.
He emphasised that Air Peace aims to expand its fleet to
over 60 aircraft.
