Federal Government Restores DANA Air's Operating License


The Federal Government only suspended the Operating License of Dana Air on Saturday only to have it restored back on Monday.

A statement issued by the Special Adviser (Media) to the Minister of Aviation, Joe Obi, said that officials of the Ministry and those of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) met with officials of the airline and deliberated on safety issues and Dana’s operations.
He said
“At the end of the meeting, the suspension of operations of the airline which took effect last Saturday was lifted. The airline is to resume normal operations immediately. However, the particular aircraft which had a snag over the weekend is to remain grounded until after its airworthiness has been re-certified by Boeing, the manufacturer of the aircraft,” 
Dana Air, in an email sent to its customers signed by the Head, Corporate Communications, Dana Air, Tony Usidamen yesterday said:
“We are pleased to announce that the airline has been given approval to resume flight operations with immediate effect following the temporary suspension of our operations on Saturday.
“Scheduled flights will now commence on Tuesday, March 19, on the Lagos-Abuja-Lagos route,”
