Barring another disruption by the Omicron COVID-19 variant, the rivalry is set to resume on the high-traffic Lagos-Dubai-Lagos route

, as Air Peace and Emirates Airlines restart flight services.

While Nigerian flag carrier, Air Peace, resumed Lagos-Dubai operations on December 1, Emirates is revving up for December 5 date with flights in and out of Lagos and Abuja daily. The Nigerian government also responded swiftly by lifting the ban it previously placed on UAE’s Emirates Airline’s flights in March.

“But all’s well that ends well. We are happy that both countries are represented by airlines and can offer travellers good and affordable rates. Going into the festive rush, days ahead will be very interesting for the two carriers,” Olumegbon said.
