The Nigerian Government has announced the resumption of catering services on domestic and international flights.
The services were banned last year as part of measures to limit the spread of coronavirus.
Hadi Sirika, Nigeria’s Aviation Minister said the decision was taken in light of businesses that had been affected by the ban.
The protocols for the resumption of the services, however, will be announced in due course by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority [NCAA], he said.
“The [presidential task force on Covid-19] has decided that this catering service resumes immediately while the process and procedure will be communicated to the airlines via NCAA in due course,” he said at a media briefing on Monday.
The authorities also reiterated their plan to resume flights in Port Harcourt, Kano, and Enugu airports.
