A few days before Christmas and New Year, most domestic flights to some parts of the country have been fully booked while prices have gone up by over 100 per cent in some Southern routes.
The most affected routes are the South-East and South-South destinations, which usually record increased passenger movements during the Yuletide festivities.Our correspondent reports that a one way-flight on South-South and South East routes increased by over 100 per cent through December selling between N380,000 to N500,000.In fact, as of yesterday, most flights to the South East and South South are fully booked for those trying to book online.
On Friday, there was no seat on the Lagos to Port Harcourt flight on ValueJet from now till after Christmas. It is the same on Ibom Air.
Ibom Air’s flight to Uyo, its base, was also fully booked throughout December when our correspondent checked.
