Flight Tickets Jump By 40% As JET-A1 Now Sells For N240/l by Omooba77: 6:20am On Dec 16, 2016 |
Flight tickets for the major airlines in the country have jumped by almost 40 percent due to the increase in the price of aviation fuel known as Jet-AI. A return ticket on the popular Abuja-Lagos route for the major domestic airlines is now between N70,000 to N88,000 . The price of Jet A1 across the nation is now N240 per litre. In Lagos and environs, the price used to be between N205 and N210 per litre until this week when the scarcity worsened findings by Daily Trust show. The product is even more expensive in the hinterland like Abuja, Kano, Sokoto and Yola where it is sold at N250 per litre. An airline operator who spoke with Daily Trust yesterday under condition of anonymity said the scarcity has continued to worsen as many airline operators are at the mercy of marketers to operate their scheduled flights. He said: “As I am talking to you now Jet A1 has increased to N240 per litre from N210. Honestly it is not easy at all. We are now running after marketers to get fuel.” Daily Trust learnt that the skyrocketing fuel price may force airlines to adjust their fare to cope with increasing cost of operations precipitated by the scarcity of Jet A1. For instance, Arik Airline, the nation’s largest carrier, charges between N70,740 and N76,000 for a Abuja-Lagos return ticket; Medview Airline charges between N86,000 and N88,000; and Dana Airline charges N73,800 for a return ticket on the same route. A spokesman of Dana Air, Mr. Kingsley Okwudili, who spoke with our correspondent said the development has remained the same with the scarcity of Jet A1, adding, however that the airline had managed to operate all its scheduled flights albeit with minor delays. He urged passengers to bear with the airlines when there is flight delay, saying, “Flights are delayed these days to ensure that there is no cancellation because it has not been easy getting fuel.” We just seek the understanding of passengers”.

God will have mercy on Nigeria; aviation industry is about to collapse totally. How many people will be able to afford 70k for a trip, less patronage and you can imagine multiplier effects. 20 Likes |

We will come out of this someday I believe, though it seems tough today but it can only persist if we as citizens of this great country especially the youths allow it tarry. Let's see how we can change our fortunes for good, the future is now and it ours. We have been decived for too long by those we thought are old enough to do things aright. Shun the tribal hatred because Nigeria is bigger and more important than any tribe. We can have the Nigeria of our dream. Time is running out fellow youths, let's start working towards a better Nigeria for our young and unborn children. PEACE........ 4 Likes 1 Share |

That guy that treck for Buhari from Lagos to Abuja when he won should be arrested and jailed now. This is the real meaning of his trecking then but Nigerians didn't notice.
