Air Peace Airlines has made history by launching direct flights to London’s prestigious Heathrow Airport, revolutionizing travel between Nigeria and the United Kingdom.

The Nigerian carrier is offering unprecedented fare cuts, with round-trip tickets from Nigeria to London starting at ₦1 million, significantly lower than the ₦3-5 million previously charged by foreign airlines.

Route : Abuja to London Heathrow, with operations set to begin on October 26, 2025

Frequency : Six weekly slots secured at Heathrow Airport, providing travelers with greater flexibility and convenience

Aircraft : Boeing 777 aircraft will be used for the flights, ensuring a comfortable and reliable experience for passengers

Baggage Allowance : Generous baggage allowance is included, further enhancing the value for travelers

Air Peace’s entry into the London market has sparked a price war, forcing foreign carriers like British Airways and Virgin Atlantic to reduce their prices. This development has been welcomed by Nigerian travelers, who now have more affordable options for international flights.

The airline plans to expand its international network, including routes to the United States, UAE, and Senegal, cementing its reputation as a trailblazer in African aviation.
