Following court orders to ground 3 Arik Air aircrafts which affected their operations,
The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has explained that the Arik Airline will continue scheduled flight operations with its other aircrafts not affected by a recent Court Order.
Recall that a recent Order of Court had grounded three of Arik Air’s aircrafts. They are 5NMJF; 5NMJQ; and 5NBKX.
A statement signed by the Director Public Affairs, and Consumer Operations Michael Achimugu disclosed that contrary to information being circulated in some quarters, neither the NCAA or the Ministry of Aviation has suspended the overall operations of the airline.
According to him,”The NCAA is duty-bound to comply with the court order following the determination of its case at the Supreme Court and to ensure compliance with regulatory and safety standards”.
“The NCAA reiterates that it has not suspended or halted Arik Air’s flight operations,which continue as scheduled and do not affect the airline’s ability to operate its remaining fleet”.
