Aviation Fuel Scarcity May Paralyse Flight Operations

Published

on

Aviation fuel scarcity, which started last weekend, may get worse as the yuletide draws near and the prices of the product expected to skyrocket as it happened in the previous years.

The scarcity since the beginning of the week has affected flight operations and led to delays and cancellations, especially Abuja to Lagos flights, which is the busiest route in domestic flight service.

THISDAY learnt that only very few flights operated on schedules as flights going from Lagos to major destinations such as Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, Owerri and Enugu were either cancelled or delayed.

The prices of the product which in the last few weeks were about N180 to N200 per litre has increased to between N210 and N215 in Lagos..
