Dana Air to Resume Operations on the 9th of November.

After almost 4 months on the sidelines, Dana Air (DAN: Lagos; Nigeria) will resumes flights on the 9th of November. Dana Air was suspended in July by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA). NCAA suspended the airline as they ruled that Dana Air was unable to meet financial obligations and to conduct safe flight operations.

After an extensive financial audit by the NCAA, Dana Air will finally be back in the the skies. Part of a press statement released by Dana Air read, “The audit for us was a re-engineering and restructuring process and having successfully concluded the audit and an extensive one at that for the second time. Also, with a new management team fully in charge, we are now well positioned despite the current challenges and hostile economic environment, and concentrating fully on strengthening our operations efficiently for sustainable growth while still offering safe, reliable and exciting flying experience to our loyal guests.

As a proudly Nigerian brand with Nigerians at the helm of affairs and with over 14 years service to the Nigerian flying public, we remain eternally grateful to our customers, travel partners, clients and vendors for keeping faith with us while the audit lasted and we would never take your loyalty and support for granted as it means a lot to us.

We wish to also express our profound gratitude to the NCAA for the painstaking Audit process and the professionalism exhibited by the team of inspectors and also the management personnel who stayed sometimes beyond their official closing times to see that we do what is needed to be done properly and in good time during the course of the Audit process.”
