10. Ethopian Airline does have a stake yet, Ethopian airline is signifying interest, but they do not have anything to offer the National Carrier, as their so called Ethiopian airline too was leveraged on statrt up, There is greater prospect and gain if it is managed by Qatar or the Middle East Investors

400 thousand youths just to arrive at name??
Na wah o

Every Public servants must fly Nigerian carriers (Nigeria Air).

Only Ethiopia was able to maintain theirs up till today.

30 years ago the same Ethiopia used to hire our expertise to maintain their airline.

Good news to Nigeria. Let see how we handle this!

socialmediaman:

But we are going to reply most definitely.
Cheers man.

gcof:

Exactly

Hahahahaha

What they mean is if public servants for example in Port Harcourt have a conference to attend in Abuja they must use patronize Nigeria Air unless if they can prove that the flight is fully booked then they can try Air Peace, Aero etc.

bunlizlaw:
I just hope there would be proper maintenance.It's a beautiful initiative though.

If Nigeria relies on maintenance abroad in addition to fees needing to be paid for parking on foreign airports then profit margins will gradually become untenable especially since all fees will be cranked up over time. Airlines often survive on marginal profits. Nigeria must learn to be self reliant in some areas of maintenance or be taking to the cleaners. I don't know for sure but i'm guessing that something like this help kill former Nigeria airways.

Some airport fees:

Runway Charges

Passenger Charges

Security Charges

Infrastructure Charges

Parking Charges

Environmental Charges

Terminal Navigation Charges

Government Taxes

Etc

Failed investment. Nigeria is a shot hole kwon3

kenonze:
More than 90% of those criticising this Nigeria Air apparently do not have an idea what its all about.
I disagree with number 10

I disagree with no3 and 4. So none of the 400,000 youths can make logo abi.

3.

About 400,000 Nigerian youths were engaged to arrive at the name – “Nigeria Air”.

So the best thing the so called 400,000 APC youths could come up with is to swap Air Nigeria with Nigeria Air? And that became the winning entry? You are gonna have to publish all the 400,000 entries for Nigerians to see.

Sweet talk!

A lot of things amiss here.

The owner of 95% does not have a say in the logo construction!

The owner of 95% would not have a say in the 81 destinations the carrier is going to!

Where is that done?

But we have to give them a benefit of doubt!

Just that I am wondering how a nation that spends a whole year to prepare and approve a paper budget now wants to set up a whole airline, national carrier in FIVE months. Does it really work that way? Sounds really clueless. But we shall see. Please hurry up.

3.

About 400,000 Nigerian youths were engaged to arrive at the name – “Nigeria Air”.

I am not understanding!!! Na so the name hard to get!!! Nigeria Air! they don't need to go through that stress! one person can arrive at the name!

Pls what kind of nonsense is this God sake God. Why do Nigerian talk too much blabla blabla blublu blorblor. Which national carrier are you talking about? The logo or the media propaganda?

We only saw logo we have not seen a single airplane nor heard some had being purchased and are on the way and these much noise everywhere talking blabla.

This was how one Siriki or Srilanka who claimed to be minister of aviation already stipulating penalties for people who do not patronize the fake logo air carrier I don't just get this madness it's pissing me off.

Wait let's see the aircraft first before 11 points or 30 reasons. What the hell is all these plenty talk?

STOP DECEIVING YOURSELF, THINKING YOU ARE DECEIVING OTHERS, POSTERITY WILL JUDGE YOU. YOU MAY AS WELL TELL NIGERIANS THAT ALL THAT HAVE BEEN SPENT SO FAR FOR THIS "BOUND TO FAIL" PROJECT WAS DONE FREE OF CHARGE FOR THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT BY GOOD SAMARITANS.

Nigeria Air is a business and not a social service and it’s set for take-off on December 24, 2018

Bookmarked, I go remind you soon

at list we can call it ours and we will be able to dictate flight fees

Abi o.

Make them maintain the name Nigeria Airlines well.

Because as far as I am concerned, Nigeria only launched logo and name

Government is providing $55M and will not own more than 5% shares. The investment must be very large. So, how much are the other investors injecting? Who exactly are the other partners?
If Nigerians are not provided with this information, then, there's a possibility of a huge scam in it. God help us.
