During a media briefing in Abuja on Thursday, the coordinator of the Presidential Task Force on COVID-19, Sani Aliyu, said that airline operators and aviation authorities have been asked to begin the process for resuming international flights.
“Specific to air transportation, as you are aware, domestic flights have already resumed, the railway sector has also restarted. For international travel, we have made a recommendation to the aviation industry to commence the process for opening international airports provided all existing international and local COVID-19 protocol are in place.
“We have modified the protocol for passenger arrivals at the airports. Domestic passengers arriving at the airports are advised to arrive one hour before their flights and three hours before international flights when this restarts,” Aliyu says.
