Musa Nuhu, Director-General/CEO of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has ordered that incoming international flights are only permitted to carry a maximum of 200 passengers.
Nuhu disclosed this in a memo he signed during the weekend.
“Following the announcement by the presidential task force (PTF) on COVID-19 on the partial resumption of international flights effective September 5, 2020.
“Kindly note due to the limited number of approved incoming passengers (1,280) allowed daily per each airport, it is not possible to accommodate the requested schedule of airlines.
“The approved schedule is based on a maximum number of 200 passengers per each incoming flight to Nigeria. There is no limit on the number of outgoing passengers.
“Each operator has only one frequency on an approved day of operation irrespective of the capacity of aircraft utilised
