Arik Air, West and Central Africa’s largest carrier has announced the introduction of substantially reduced promotional fares for travel on all its domestic routes. Passengers can now book a one-way Arik Air economy class ticket to any destination in Nigeria for as low as N15, 000.
The promo fare is available for sale from April 21, 2015 till May 15, 2015 while travel must be made before June 15, 2015. The lower fares are available only online (www.arikair.com).
Passengers booking the promo fare will enjoy super savings over regular published fares on the applicable routes.
Arik Air Managing Director, Mr. Chris Ndulue commented on the promo fare:
‘‘We have always been a value based airline offering not only good value for money without compromising our safety and quality standards, but also ensuring a warm and exciting travel experience on board our Next Generation aircraft. Our size, extensive network in Nigeria, combined with our superior product gives us considerable leverage to offer such dynamic pricing. We believe this offer will give more of our guests greater flexibility of flights at very attractive prices across our domestic network. Our website has been designed to emphasize user friendliness so that our guests can now search for, and book the promotional fare with ease’’.

Hopefully the industry can be made even more competitive and attractive enough to make ordinary Nigerians patronize same. N15, 000 is still about $100, which would be actually outrageous prices for low-cost airlines in the western world.
