IgbereTV reports that the Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, on Monday, 6th of July, said food will no longer be served on domestic flights when operations resume.

Sirika who spoke during the Presidential Taskforce, PTF on COVID-19 briefing in Abuja explained that the decision was part of efforts to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus on flights.

“For this domestic operation, there will be no food. No food will be given to reduce contamination level and we will allow you to come with your mask,” he said.

“Like the MD of FAAN had said the other day, we see it as your private thing. So it is you bring your mask, they don’t have to be the fancy ones.”

On how cabin crew came into existence, he said the cabin crew’s job was not to offer tea to passengers.

He said: “They came into the industry because of people who were getting air-sick so we thought we would be putting nurses in the aeroplane to look after those people who are sick. Since then, they metamorphosed and they became something new.

“They want to now give you tea because many people don’t get sick anymore, they give will either give you coffee, offer you food and drink and so on. So the main purpose of the cabin staff is to ensure that we all remain safe for your welfare and your health.”

The 100 snacks they share after you paid thousands. Rubbish. I don't even it it before now

Prior to now not everyone take refreshment on the flight. It's actually not necessary...

no worries, so long as we can bring our own packed jollof rice on board.

Which meals were they serving before?

Tiny piece of snacks or cracker biscuit and one funny tiny bottle of drink, na the meal be dat?

Air peace is even worse, as if they are doing you favour, on what I paid for.

Now that they won't be serving the nonsense, hope the flight ticket will be reviewed downward.

Nonsense and ingredients.

We paying tens of thousands for domestic flights, but they end up giving someone food that doesnt even reach N1k like we are beggars.. nonsense meal
