After a two-year suspension, Emirates, the flag carrier of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), resumed operations at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) in Lagos.
It was learnt that the airline’s flight EK 783 landed at around 3:30 p.m. on Tuesday.
However, the airline’s return comes after a prolonged halt due to issues, including the trapping of funds in Nigeria.
The Emirates aircraft arrived at the old terminal of the airport.
Emirates had announced on its website that is “back in Lagos from 1 October 2024”.
“Book flights to Lagos and explore Africa’s fastest-growing of Africa’s city, teeming with life and sound,” it added.
