The Director General, Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) Capt. Chris Najomo has directed Air Peace to immediately improve its domestic operations owing to complaints of chronic flight delays and cancellations by the travelling public.

This is contained in a statement on Friday by NCAA

According to the statement, Najomo strongly advised the airline to trim its operations to the size of available aircraft presently in its fleet to mitigate the crisis.

The DGCA gave the charge on Friday in a meeting with some management staff of Air Peace in Abuja.

The airline representatives at the meeting acknowledged that it has some challenges that are not unusual in the industry, but they are working round the clock to fix them.

The DGCA reiterated that, while the NCAA will continue to support the airlines, the operators must comply with the regulations and global best practices.

Capt. Najomo however warned that the NCAA is increasing its monitoring of flight operations across all airlines to ensure compliance.
