Arik Air deploys more aircraft for 2023 Hajj

Arik Air Airline says it has deployed additional aircraft for the airlifting of pilgrims for this year’s Hajj to  be concluded in the shortest timeframe in Lagos, Abuja and Kano.

Communications Manager, Arik Air, Mr Ola Adebanji, stated this in a statement on Thursday in Lagos.

“Arik Airline is working closely with the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) to ensure that all international pilgrims registered with Association of Hajj and Umrah Operators of Nigeria (AHUON) are transported within the timeframe allotted for this year’s exercise,”  he said.

Adebanji said the initial hitch which occurred during the airlift was regrettable and commended the leadership of NAHCON for its intervention.

It also appealed to pilgrims and tour operators for understanding.
