Enugu Air is set to commence international flight operations to London Gatwick on December 10, 2026, expanding travel options between Nigeria and the United Kingdom.
The Enugu State-owned airline announced that the service would operate four times weekly, with tickets already available for booking.
The new route is expected to improve international connectivity for passengers travelling from Enugu, Lagos and other parts of the country.
The flights will be operated using an Airbus A330-200 aircraft supplied by Portugal-based EuroAtlantic Airways under an Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance (ACMI) arrangement.
The service will be delivered through a partnership with Omni-Blu Aviation.
Enugu Air Chief Executive Officer, Tolu Ita, described the development as a major milestone in the airline’s international expansion, noting that passengers from the South-East would be able to begin their London journeys from Akanu Ibiam International Airport in Enugu.
He added that the service would create easier travel opportunities for business travellers, tourists, students and Nigerians in the diaspora. Punch Newspapers
