NIGERIA’S new airline, Green Africa has announced plans to commence flight operations on its recently announced routes from June 24, 2021 with ticket sales opened with attractive low fares.
Announcing the commencement of the tickets sales, the airline said it was offering as low as N16,500 for one hour flight.
While the airline said tickets will be made available at 10 per cent discount rate to its gFlyer members, it added that the sales tagged: “gFlyer Specials” meant that non-gFlyer members would get tickets at normal rate.
