Flight operations have been disrupted at the Nnamdi Azikiwe
International Airport (NAIA) domestic terminal in Abuja following a technical
fault affecting baggage screening equipment.
In a statement on Monday, Air Peace said the issue has
slowed baggage processing and loading procedures, leading to possible delays in
some departures.
“This situation is due to a technical issue with baggage
screening equipment within the terminal, which has slowed standard processing
procedures,” the statement reads.
“To minimise disruption, we have proactively activated
alternative screening procedures using available equipment to ensure flights
continue operating safely.
“However, these additional steps may result in longer
processing times and possible delays to some departures.”
The airline said ground teams have been deployed to assist
passengers, provide updates, and prioritise affected flights.
Air Peace said it is working closely with airport
authorities to resolve the issue as quickly as possible and restore normal
operations.
“Please be assured that we are doing everything within our
control to expedite the process and reduce the impact on your travel plans,”
the airline added.
Air Peace acknowledged the inconvenience caused by the
disruption and appealed to passengers for patience.
