The Federal Government has relaxed travel protocols for air passengers and other stakeholders, following the reduction in COVID-19 cases in the country.
The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), in a letter dated December 12, 2022 gave details of the revised travel protocol.
The letter, which was signed by the Director-General of NCAA, Captain Musa Nuhu, was addressed to all aviation service providers.
The letter reads: “The prevalence of COVID-19 pandemic in Nigeria and most parts of the world has remained at a low level for a sustained period.
“The Presidential Steering Committee on COVID-19 (PSC) has, therefore, revised the COVID-19/Public Health guidelines.”
For domestic operations, it stated: “The wearing of face masks inside airport terminal buildings and onboard aircraft by airport workers, passengers and crew members is no longer mandatory.”
