Enugu Air announces London flights, sets December 10 take-off date
Enugu State-owned airline, Enugu Air, has announced plans to commence direct flights to London Gatwick on December 10, 2026, as part of its international expansion.
The service will be operated through the airline’s partnership with Omni-Blu Aviation and will run four times weekly using an Airbus A330-200 aircraft.
The aircraft will be provided under an Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance and Insurance (ACMI) arrangement with Portugal-based airline, EuroAtlantic Airways.
Commenting on the development, Enugu Air’s Chief Executive Officer, Captain Tolu Ita, described the planned London service as an important milestone in the airline’s international expansion.
He said: “The commencement of our London Gatwick service reflects our commitment to expanding international connectivity and the vision of His Excellency, Governor Peter Mbah, to connect Enugu to more opportunities across the world.
“Of particular importance is ensuring that passengers from Enugu can begin their international journey to London from their home airport, Akanu Ibiam International Airport. We are proud to make the journey from Enugu to London Gatwick a reality for our passengers.”
Speaking on the partnership, Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of Omni-Blu Aviation, Engr Akinola Olateru, said: “Our partnership with Enugu Air demonstrates our commitment to expanding Nigeria’s international air connectivity and creating more opportunities for passengers travelling between Nigeria and the United Kingdom.”
