Nine years after ceasing operations, Chanchangi Airlines is set to return to the country’s airspace.

The Director-General of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Capt Musa Nuhu, who disclosed the plan on Friday said the Kaduna-based airline is preparing a comeback. He gave the hint while explaining the high demand for air travel in the country, saying that “Chanchangi wants to come back and they want to use ATR, they are planning to come back. The demand is there”.
With its head office in the Chanchangi Office Complex in Kaduna, the airline had operated scheduled domestic passenger services.
Capt Nuhu equally observed a new trend in airline operations where operators are now shifting to smaller aircraft against the bigger ones.
