Aero Contractors, Nigeria’s oldest airline, says it will suspend passenger flights from Wednesday, July 20.
The airline, in a statement on Monday, said the suspension is temporary but did not indicate when it will resume operations.
In May, Aero had denied plans to shut down operations after reports alleged that the airline was cash-strapped and might soon go out of business.
Aero said the decision to suspend passenger flights was taken due to the fact that most of its aircraft are currently undergoing maintenance, resulting in an inability to offer a seamless and efficient service to customers.
