The proposed initiative is designed to allow passengers to book flight tickets and pay in instalments, thereby making air travel more accessible despite the increasing cost of tickets.
Domestic airfares have surged in recent months, driven by high aviation fuel costs, operational challenges, limited aircraft availability and growing passenger demand.
Stakeholders in the aviation sector say the development has placed significant financial pressure on travellers, with many Nigerians finding it increasingly difficult to afford flights on major domestic routes.
The proposed scheme is part of broader efforts to ease the burden on passengers and sustain patronage within the country’s aviation industry.
