Medview Airline’s has expressed optimism that its flight services to Kaduna from Lagos with a return trip back to Lagos via Abuja will encourage more people to fly instead of taking bus services.
Executive Director, Technical and head of Engineering of the airline, Engr. Lookman Animashaun, who made this known shortly after the airline‘s arrival at the Kaduna Airport, said travellers can now use Medview services starting with four weekly flights on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
He was optimistic that once they see the consistency of the airline service with no delays, travellers will want to fly between Kaduna-Abuja routes instead of taking a two hour ride.
“Most people believe that between Kaduna and Abuja, it is only two hours by road and Lagos-Kaduna is one hour flight, but by the time people are aware that when they come to the airport they will get flight to Abuja, they will be encouraged to fly, Medview ”, he added.
On the service proper, Animashaun said the flights will depart Lagos for Kaduna on the scheduled days at exactly 07.30 am and leave for Abuja at 09.10 am from Kaduna.
Animashaun, who hinted that Medview was ready to compete with others on the route, added that what has also endeared passengers to its services is its safety policy and on-time departure and arrival.
