Dana Air is back in the skies. It commenced it's first flight operations after 6 months of grounded flights.
The initail flight was scheduled to take off on Friday January 4th, 2013.
It’s been six months after Dana Air was grounded by the Nigerian government following the June 3rd, plane crash in Lagos.
The initial flight will take off at about 9.45 a.m. from the Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos, Southwest Nigeria, for Abuja, the Nigerian capital.
Dana Air Corporate Communications Manager, Mr. Tony Usidamen, said on Wednesday January 2nd that VIPs, journalists, celebrities and political figures will be among the first set of travellers.
The airline, which was adjudged the best in the country before the ill-fated plane crash, will have to rebuild confidence among weary Nigerian travellers.
Dana currently has five planes in its fleet and virtually all of them have undergone C-check in Turkey.
Already, the airline said, it has opened its online booking platform for the purchase of tickets.
Dana Air was re-awarded its Air Operators’ Certificate few weeks ago after a thorough recertification process that lasted for months.
