Jet A1 crisis forces Air Peace to cut Abuja-London flights

Air Peace has announced a temporary reduction in its Abuja-London flight operations due to ongoing challenges in the supply of aviation fuel.

In a statement shared via its official social media channels, the airline confirmed that flights between Abuja and London will now operate three times a week.

The airline attributed the decision to the Jet A1’s limited fuel availability, which continues to impact airline operations both in Nigeria and globally.

Air Peace explained that the adaptation is necessary to ensure safety and maintain operational efficiency during the disruption.

According to the airline, the reduced schedule will remain in place until July 1, 2026, when full frequency of flights is expected to resume.

Prior to this change, the Abuja-London route operated daily, making the reduction significant for passengers traveling on the route.

Air Peace acknowledged that the change in plans may inconvenience travelers and apologized for any disruption to travel plans.

The airline thanked customers for their understanding and assured them of its continued efforts to provide a safe and reliable service.

The company said it is actively engaging with stakeholders to address fuel supply challenges.

It reiterated its commitment to restoring normal operations as soon as conditions improve.
