FG Reduces Domestic Flight Check-in Time To 1 Hour
The Federal Government has reduced the arrival time for check- in formalities to one hour, the Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, has said.
The government had initially prescribed three hours arrival of passengers before departure.
Sirika who made this known in a statement through his official twitter handle, said the move would facilitate the process of air travel at the airport.
He said, “My colleagues & I have reviewed passenger facilitation at our airports, consequently I am happy to announce that, henceforth travelers are to arrive one hour and a half before their departure time for domestic flights. Travelers are advised to check in online, please.”

The country had lifted suspension on domestic flights on July 8, with only Lagos and Abuja airports commencing operations.
The Port Harcourt International Airport would formally resume flight operations on Saturday, July 11, the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), had said.
