FG set to optimise FAAN’s revenue generating capacity

Keyamo also addressed the state of the old terminal, stating that it requires a complete overhaul. Notably, the central cooling system is not functioning, and there are numerous areas that require maintenance.

As a result, the Minister directed all airlines operating in the old terminal to relocate their check-in counters to the new terminal within a period of three months. According to the statement, “Keyamo said 60%revenue of FAAN comes from Lagos and as such the new terminal should be used optimally. “On concession of the airports and Nigeria air project, the Minister said all will be put on hold until he briefs Mr President on his findings. He stated that as much as he is willing to protect the local airlines, he expects them to be more efficient and effective, noting that issues of flight cancellation and delays will be looked into and laws enforced where necessary. He further directed the removal of unserviceable aircraft by the owners for the expansion of Apron.

“To give space for the expansion of the new terminal to accommodate bigger aircraft, Keyamo said he would discuss with owners of private hangers within the space for possible relocation of their hangers.”All rights reserved.
