Barring all unforeseen contingencies, another domestic airline, K-Impex airlines would storm the industry with scheduled passenger, Cargo and charter operations across the country by the first quarter of year 2022
K-Impex airline, according to the Managing Director, Dr Abel Ozigi will also operate local cargo targeting perishable and non perishable goods.
Ozigi noted that insecurity and decaying road infrastructure have made the transportation of goods and services by road very difficult and unfashionable.
The managing director who disclosed that the airline was shopping for the model of aircraft of between 15 to 20 tons capacity to develop the local cargo operations, said he was personally concerned about the huge losses being incurred by distributors of perishable goods resulting from frequent accidents and attacks by bandits on highways added that the airline’s planned freight services would eliminate such unforseen circumstances.
“The initiative l believe will equally ensure that perishable items are delivered fresh to consumers. It will eradicate delays and multiple taxations incurred by distributors who usually pay rates from state to state as they truck their goods”.
Though not willing to disclose the type of aircraft model the airline is procuring for the proposed operations, Ozigi said, “we are quite aware of the implications of using the right model of aircraft for domestic operations, so we are ordering the most suitable airplanes for our local and regional operations”.
He further disclosed that K-Impex Airline would start operations locally but would eventually extend to regional routes within the first six months .
The airline according to him has a target to start with four airplanes for scheduled operations, two twelve seaters for charter and one for freighter by the first quarter of 2022.
This is awesome news. I am excited…
This is a good step in a positive direction. I trust the airline will have a large acceptance owing to his good management skill. Engr (Dr) Abel Ozigi is a good hand.
Congratulations.
