One of the highlights of the week was the report The recent reciprocal reduction of Emirates flights to Nigeria from 21 per week to just once, in retaliation to UAE’s limitation of Air Peace’s flights to Dubai via Sharjah Airport, to one flight per week, has sent an assuring message that the federal government will go full length to protect the interests of indigenous airlines and Nigerian air travelers.
According to some reports, Some would say Emirates is losing an estimated revenue of $25.2 million per month that could have accrued from operating 21 flights per week, while Air Peace would have lost only $2.7 million per month from operating three flights per week. These exclude the additional money that passengers would spend in Dubai on holidays and businesses. It is estimated that 40 percent of passengers on Dubai flights have Dubai as their destination while 60 percent transit through Dubai airport.”
