Yes, that should have been the right move. Air peace met some airlines operating from Nigeria to UK, it's insensitive of Air peace to slash the pice without no proper consultation with other airlines.

If Air peace ticket to London is $700, na to just drop theirs to $650.

Did you see the difference in the flight durations?
Flights with shorter layovers or none at all are usually more expensive.
The price difference seems perfectly normal.

Do Air peace have that option of stopping over?

How many hours would the stop over take compared to N400k you would save?

Reason that as a business minded person

What do you mean by consult with foreign airlines ? Did they consult with Nigerian aviation minister or sector before tripling and quadrupling their ticket prices ?

Time is money.
A lot of passengers would rather pay 400k to get to their destination in time instead of spending around 10 hours waiting at the airport for a connecting flight.

Airpeace doesn't need to stop over because it's a direct flight which is what anyone would prefer if they can afford it.

Air peace should have made proper consultation with other airlines before splashing the average airline ticket to UK.

Win win for the travellers as the airlines would drag themselves to the extent of free falling the price .

Modified: As usual, tribal coloration must be added to my comments. Air peace is our own, we all want it's success but they can't be doing things in a wrong way without calling them out.

First Air peace trip from Nigeria to UK, they had issue in both Nigeria and UK, can everybody be wrong? Perhaps, Air peace should have a proper consultant teams that would help them to put things in order before taking any steps..

We are yet to pack the oracle from the ground, it has already started predicting. Below is the price between Ethiopian airlines and Air peace, N400k difference

Take another look at the price graphic you presented. Air Peace shaves a whopping 10 hours off Ethiopia's travel time. For most travelers, that time savings and direct flight is worth the price difference.

I bet you have never traveled internationally. 10 hours plus and a stop over means two meals at the airport. Do you even know how much a meal could cost at the airport?
In addition to the risk of transfer of luggage , it could be damaged suitcases or total loss.
Let’s not even mention fatigue and jet lag from the extended time.
Some passengers are elderly, with limited mobility to navigate the airport gates. All they need is a one time boarding and unboarding at their destination.
It’s better you keep quiet than to open your mouth and expose your folly.

I am happy that Air Peace Airlines was able to secure that Lagos-London route, but this story is nothing but a misleading one because, till now, I haven’t seen any changes in the plane ticket prices.

What the writer refers to as a price reduction is not really a price reduction, but our currency appreciates against the dollar.

For example, those who bought a $1200 plane ticket recently (in March), when the exchange rate was $1 to 1700 naira, end up paying 2,040,000 naira.

But if you buy that same ticket today because of the naira appreciation, you will end up paying 1,464, 000 naira because the exchange is $1 to 1220 naira as of today.

This has nothing to do with Air Peace Airlines, but with the exchange rate.

He actually made sense. If you believed that Air Peace didn't have business consulting others before splashing Airfares, why crying now that others are doing the same to them? Most of you siding with Air Peace wouldn't believe that you're sounding like hypocrites

Let's hope Air Peace aircraft are not sabotaged by Oyibo engineers wherever it is Air Peace crafts are serviced. If you believe Oyigbo won't let the potential guilty conscience of being the cause of aircraft crash that kills everyone aboard allow them to tamper with the aircraft then you don't know Oyibo.

You're contradicting yourself bro,if everyone is allowed to play the game,of what essence is the consultation?
It's a free market where every player is allowed to dictate whatever they want,so on what basis is the consultation?
Am not understanding sir.

Don't you think the consultation might result in air peace forming alliance with their competitors to dictate price which in turn will still makes Nigerians pay higher prices?
This is a gang up by other operators to frustrate our own Nigerian business brother's, what I think we as sensible/patriotic nigerians should all do at this time is to support air peace. Ethiopian,British airways airline I have traveled with them on several occasions and can tell you for a fact that they treat their citizens differently,I experienced this first hand when i traveled from dallas to Heathrow as an American and missed my flight to lagos British airways took care of ne and other Nigerians on this flight were complaining of bad treatment which is not fair,there is more to this bro because we're talking about big money.
If you traveled this route often like I do you will know that nigerians constitute almost 100% of the passengers on that route almost on daily basis, there should be reciprocity in the market.

The dubious, misleading, manipulated report couldn't even quote Air Peace airfares just like it quoted others both old and new fares. These Air Peace and the media outlet are honest with the public. The news looks like a sponsored news.

THIS IS THE SAME OLD NORMAL PRACTICES DONE FOR GENERATIONS
why do y'all think there are airline alliances? if Air Peace is going for a market share, they will have to fight for it , and lose a lot of money before they can succeed. its always the same things done when a new airline comes to the game.

these long established airlines (British Airways, Air France, KLM etc) will lower their flight cost at a loss (because they can afford it), to kill the new comer, then when the newcomer is out, they will raise back their prices to 25% more than the normal price (since they are the only ones offering such route).

Are you blind Oga?

Ethiopian Airlines 16 hours, 45 minutes with 1 stop.

Air Peace, 6 hours 45 minutes continuous flight with no stop.

Are these flight plans the same?

If Air Peace does N1.2 for direct ,how do you expect Turkish airlines not to charge less when they will park you in Istanbul for 3 hours on the way there and like 18 hours on the way back.

Where did you see Air peace crying?
The aviation law is already an advantage to them in that they could fly non stop Nigeria to London. Apart from British airlines, no other airline can do that.
Just know that British airline can never reduce their ticket price just because of any competition.
So, Air peace will always be the favorite and desired airline by Nigerian travelers.
