He noted: "This strategy allows them to save significantly compared to direct US-Nigeria flights. "Additionally, Chinese citizens residing in Nigeria are using Air Peace to connect to China via London, benefiting from reduced airfares. ""Our system did not initially advertise our first-class seats, which has now been corrected. As a result, we recorded a very high load factor, with only 12 first-class seats and one business-class seat empty out of the 274-seat capacity aircraft.

"We thank Nigerians for their support and are pleased they are happy with the airline."
