Ibom Air: Nigerian Aviation industry needed a game changer

Chief Executive Officer of Ibom Air, Mr George Uriesi says the airline will serve as a game changer in the Nigerian aviation industry.

Speaking with journalists at the inaugural flight of Ibom Air to the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Lagos, the CEO revealed that airline will be run on a private sector in which the state is absolutely not involved.

“It is a robust business plan. The airline is being run like a private airline and because there is a gap in the industry.”

According to him, there is a serious gap in the industry that welcomes a game changer and the airline would like to position itself as a game changer providing a world class service, providing the three key things that are missing in the industry.

He said the proposition is schedule reliability, on-time departures and superior customer service. “Nigerians can plan against our schedule.”

Secondly, “if we are leaving at 7am, we are leaving at 7am. The third is superior customer service when you interact with us. We believe that we are airline that provide this tripod of services to the passengers.”
