Announcing the scheduled commencement of the two new routes which took effect October 8th for Enugu and 10th for Monrovia, the Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Conrad Clifford, disclosed that Virgin Nigeria was poised towards making air transport accessible by developing new routes and linking same to its existing routes network to better serve the demands of passengers.
His words:“Our commitment has always been to build strong economic ties between Nigeria and other nations as we build a world class airline. Our vision is on course as we have expanded the frontiers of trade among several West African nations and Nigeria as well as linking same to our wide network of domestic and international routes.”
Conrad further noted that with the delivery of the first of its Embraer fleet unveiled a few days ago by the Senate President, Virgin Nigeria is now better poised to serve its increasing customer base. The introduction of these new routes will bring to 17 the number of destinations operated to by Virgin Nigeria.
