Emirates Airlines has extended the suspension of flights from Lagos and Abuja airports to Dubai to September 5, 2021.
Emirates had earlier announced it would suspend flights from Nigeria to Dubai till August 28, adding that passengers who have been to or connected through Nigeria in the last 14 days will not be permitted on any of its flights bound for Dubai.
However, Emirates in a statement on Sunday announced the extension of suspension of Nigeria flights until September 5.
“Passengers who have been to or connected through Nigeria in the last 14 days will not be permitted on any Emirates flights bound for Dubai”, the airline said, adding that affected flight bookings have been cancelled.
“If your flight has been cancelled or impacted by route suspensions due to COVID-19 restrictions, you don’t need to call us immediately for rebooking. You can simply hold on to your Emirates ticket and when flights resume, get in touch with your booking office or us to make new travel plans,” the airline said.
Emirates advised travellers to continue monitoring the airline’s official website for updates and flight availability.
