The resumption of flights to Asaba is coming at a time when people are looking for seamless travel during the yuletide.

Arik Air's return to Asaba is nostalgic as the airline was the first to commence commercial flights to Asaba when the airport was inaugurated in 2011.

Similarly, Arik Air, in the spirit of the yuletide season, will be increasing its frequency from Lagos to Owerri to thrice daily.

The additional flights will operate at 7:00am daily in addition to the 1:00pm and 4:30pm departures.

Speaking on the latest development, Captain Roy Ilegbodu, chief executive officer, Arik Air, said: "The resumption of flights to Asaba is a promise kept as we had assured our esteemed customers that we will be back on the route before the Christmas festivities.

"We once again assure our customers of a high operating safety standards and exceptional customer service during the yuletide and beyond."
