Azman Air, a Nigerian airline, recently made headlines after reports surfaced claiming that it had suspended operations indefinitely. However, the company has since debunked these reports, clarifying that its aircraft are currently undergoing scheduled maintenance abroad and that it plans to resume full services soon. This statement was made by Hadi Abdulmunafi, the airline’s Accountable Manager, putting an end to the speculation surrounding the airline’s future.
The airline’s decision to suspend operations came after it grounded its flights two weeks ago. This move left many passengers and industry observers wondering about the fate of the airline. However, Azman Air has now provided a timeline for when it expects to resume operations, reassuring its customers and stakeholders that it is working diligently to address the maintenance issues and get back in the air as soon as possible.
In a statement released by the company, it was emphasized that the reports of indefinite suspension of operations were inaccurate and false. The airline explained that the temporary pause in services was necessary to ensure the highest safety and reliability standards for its passengers. Despite the inconvenience caused by the suspension, Azman Air expressed gratitude for the continued support and understanding of its customers during this challenging time.
The airline’s team has been working tirelessly to expedite the maintenance process, which is now in its final stages. Once the maintenance is completed, Azman Air plans to update its passengers through its official channels regarding any developments or changes to its flight schedule. This transparent communication is crucial in maintaining trust and confidence among its customer base.
In a related development, it was reported that Air Peace and Azman Air had suffered losses amounting to $3 million due to fraudulent activities by foreign leasing companies. The Airline Operators of Nigeria (AON) disclosed that these leasing firms had blacklisted 13 Nigerian airlines for alleged breach of contracts. Despite these challenges, domestic airlines in Nigeria have remained committed to fulfilling their obligations and serving the country’s air passengers.
Overall, Azman Air’s clarification regarding the suspension of its operations provides much-needed clarity and reassurance to its customers and the aviation industry as a whole. As the airline works towards resuming full services, it is essential for it to prioritize safety, reliability, and transparent communication to rebuild trust and maintain its reputation in the market.
