Hopefully their service will get better this time around.

Good move by the aviation minister.
Re: FG Lifts Suspension On Dana Air by Kobojunkie: 9:02pm On Sep 05, 2012
Dana Air, in my opinion, should sue the Government.

dis is a good move wit respect 2 d dead. If aero & arik r d only ones flyin, dey r more prone 2 disaster cos of pressure from passengers & these companies need 2 keep dem operational. Accidents r inevitable! If dey ve bn cleared 2 operate again, definitely dey should get back on air 2 ease d pressure on odas. Dat ur beloved one die in a car accident..... No be d same car u go use go d crash site? Abeg, we don paz dis level of groundin, banin, liquidatin companies. We need some fresh air. By d way, oga jonah should direct dana airline 2 fly madam dame back 2 9ja.

I am indifferent on this issue.. If the report or rumor of that plane having some malfunctions prior to that crash is true, then govt had no business restoring that license... I didn't lose a close relative but I was unfortunately present at the funeral of a mother and only child( the Wasa family) at Gudu cementary in FCT leaving the dad who narrowly missed that flight by the whiskers without a nuclear family.. At that burial, I saw the graves of mother and her son, husband and wife all victims of this crash and I was cold to repentance.. I was particularly touched by the death of this girl( Wasa jnr), a distinguished scholar who was at the verge of resumption in an american university... I will not accuse govt of compromise but they can only be right on this if the accusations of preventable human errors are spurious .. That same crash claimed the live of Levi, the man who made my every saturday evening lively in the late 1990s - early 2000s by his GULDER OPEN HOUSE PARTY program on ray power... I beg hold that license joor!
Re: FG Lifts Suspension On Dana Air by asala1: 9:21pm On Sep 05, 2012
take dat: Initially the aviation minister said the plane crashed due to negligence on the part of DANA.This is enough excuse to revoke their license for life but FG doesnt value the lives of its citizens hence without waiting for the final report of the black box investigation they went ahead to restore their operating license
How will the minister know when there was no investigation then. Everybody is just shouting non-sense here. The fact that they had a crash does not stop them from flying again. Will that bring the dead back? How many people have died from road transporter? And they are all still carrying passengers everyday.

rooftech: What about adc airlines,sosoliso and other sinced grounded cos of politics

ADC, sosoliso both sold their aircraft, while bellview airline was rebranded to FirstNation. Sure, DANA air will also be rebranded
Re: FG Lifts Suspension On Dana Air by FrontPageLawyer(m): 9:32pm On Sep 05, 2012
spykid014: Hmmm.... I can't evaa fly dana again, d fear is always gon b thr. Good4dem tho, I hope dey haven't lost oda customers.
May the souls of the crash victims continue to Rest In Peace!

off course you'll never see DANA air again, it will surely be rebranded and unknowingly you will so much embrace it . Bellview was rebranded to FirstNAtion, I only knew about this on board 33,000 FT. I prayed until i got to lagos, anyways the flight wasn't bad.

There is nothing wrong with this move.
A crash does not mean a Airline is a failure. Accidents happen.
Re: FG Lifts Suspension On Dana Air by Siga: 9:46pm On Sep 05, 2012
Im pretty sure DANA go come out with some ridiculous promotions now....charge like 40% less than competitors to gain customers back.....I hope all dem planes are new now....but with Naija....anything goes...sorry to say....our leaders don sell us long time... undecided ....if we dont want them to operate anymore in Naija....no one should patronise them....once revenue low them go realise the cost of operation no meet revenue and dem go pack dem load leave naija.....

Omho, I no fit near Dana o.

I hope the psychology that will keep passengers away from them will not eventually return them to ground.

Billyonaire: Many of those who complain actually attest they dont fly airplanes. They prefer flying online.....

Poimt of correction.
I fly at least twice every week but even at that isn't it better to wait endlessly to get ticket than to get ticket instantly and you people wait endlessly for your return?

So because of the rush at the airport they should satisfy a dead trap in the name of aeroplanes?


These same corrupt men are the reasons why we don't have investors coming into the avaition, power, telecoms, mining, manufacturing and health sectors.

When a president, his wife, ssg, minister, senator, speaker, hon member, permanent secretary , local government chairman, governor and traditional ruler all demand for bribe differently from one single company before they can start up business in the country how then do you expect investors to come?

No be the same corruption them use pursue richard branson and others?

Reputation is a valuable thing in any business...

For me, their reputation already has a major blip and you can't be too careful when it comes to your life.
Can't fly Dana nomore.
Re: FG Lifts Suspension On Dana Air by ijebugarri1: 10:20pm On Sep 05, 2012
It will save us a lot of headache if most of these flights are just used to carry farmproducts and foodstuff like garri to the consumers. It will definitely assist to reduce the price of garri.

wyt: if u have being to airport recently u will appreciate d move. it is sooo difficult to get ticket from Abj to lag. now, air nigeria is out of operation! good move GEJ. i suport it so far as operational and technical audit was carried out.

What technical audit, have they found the black box?

rooftech: Most of the people commenting here dont realise what air travellers are going through,only arik and aero is currenly serving nigeria

Well, It's better to arrive late than to be late(as in obituary).
Re: FG Lifts Suspension On Dana Air by Josh316(m): 10:43pm On Sep 05, 2012
please, without sentiment, let me ask, is closing down an airline the best way to handle crashes? most crashes have affected top airlines yet WE NIGERIANS still fly them. The era of killing an airline becasue of an accident doesnt show any sense of seriousness on the part of our country.

British Airways has recorded more crashes than Dana air, and is still the number one choice of Britons and Nigerians. Air France recorded more devastating crashes than Bellview, Sosoliso and ADC combined yet still flies the skies with Nigerians flying in them. Its not more than 3yrs ago that a fully loaded Airfrance plane disappeared from radar and crashed into the ocean on its way from Brazil to France killing ALL on board? Or the Ethiopian airlines? Or Kenyan Airways?
Lets not be too emotional about this. yes, Lives were lost, but the lessons should be learnt from this accident to improve our aviation sector not kill it completely. I still believe if an airline does not adhere to safety rules and regulations, it should be forced to do so. however, if it shows adequate proof to show that it is serious about behaving itself, then let them fly, afterall, the consumer (commuter) will determine what happens to such an airline. Bellview was allowed to fly despite having a more fatal accident than ADC and the consumer power KILLED the airline slowly but surely.

Lets try to be objective as much as possible
