British Airways has resumed its London-Abuja flight after cancelling the flight for two days due to the security alerts on terrorism issued by the United States and United Kingdom governments.
The airline, however noted that its London-Abuja flight would now be departing by 0810 hours and arrive 1515 hours instead of the previous 22:25 hours and 4:40 hours.
On Thursday, the BA83 flight from London-Heathrow to the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja was suddenly diverted to Lagos. The development caused outrage among the affected passengers who complained that there was no adequate notice. Although BA did not provide any reason for the decision, the diversion of the flight might not be unconnected with the terror alert in Abuja with several foreign missions including the US, UK, Australia, Germany, among others issuing travel warnings to their citizens.All rights reserved.
