An extra Arik Air flight is now operating between Lagos and Accra, so giving greater flexibility and more choice for passengers who can connect onward to Accra from inbound flights from New York JFK and Johannesburg on a Saturday
The return flight on Saturdays connects to the Saturday evening departures from Lagos to Johannesburg.
Bert van der Stege, Vice President Planning & Marketing at Arik Air, commented, “There is an increasing demand on the Lagos-Accra route and not just from within Nigeria. We have added the extra flight to ensure that we meet the demand from international destinations such as Johannesburg and New York for connections at convenient times. Offering an afternoon flight on a Saturday will satisfy that demand as passengers to and from South Africa or the USA will be able to seamlessly transfer to their connecting flight in Lagos”.
Arik Air is committed to providing all of its passengers with a range of services, all at suitable times. Passengers originating from London and travelling onward to Accra already benefit from easy connections early morning, as Arik currently operates a twice daily schedule between the two West African cities with a Boeing 737 700/800.
