Air Peace, in a statement by its Chief Operating Officer, Oluwatoyin Olajide, has revealed plans to launch direct flights from Lagos and Kano to Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, beginning October 31.

The route will be serviced by Boeing 777 aircraft, offering three days of operation weekly, with potential connections from Abuja. The airline expresses gratitude to travel agents and emphasizes its commitment to optimizing the new route for all travellers.

Oluwatoyin Olajide stated, "In the first half of this year, we launched two major international destinations- Mumbai and Tel Aviv- and now we are gearing up for Jeddah next month. This does not only signals growth and expansion for the airline but also demonstrates our firm commitment to reducing the burden associated with connecting cities with stopovers. We promise direct connectivity, which is evident in our international route network. We offer direct flights at affordable fares."

Abdulrazak Ibrahim, Vice President of the National Association of Nigerian Travel Agencies, Northern Zone, applauded Air Peace for this strategic move and reiterated the association's support. He encouraged the airline to continue leading the way in enhancing route connectivity within Nigeria and beyond.
