Arik Air expands international routes

ARIK AIR, now Nigeria’s largest commercial airline, will introduce a five times per week non-stop service between Heathrow and the national capital Abuja next Thursday (26 November).  The flights will operate five times per week on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday.  The service will run parallel with the airline's daily flights to and from Lagos, both now using Heathrow Terminal 4.  Unlike Lagos, which operates an Airbus A340-500 on the route, Abuja will use the much smaller Boeing 737-800, the brand new aircraft offers 20 Business Class seats and 126 in Economy.  On 29 November the airline will introduce a non-stop Lagos – New York service, also with an Airbus A340-500. www.arikair.com
