Plateau and United Nigeria Airlines to Launch New Flight Routes

The Plateau State Government has taken a significant step in improving connectivity within Nigeria by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with United Nigeria Airlines. According to Tribune Online, this partnership aims to introduce scheduled flight operations on two new routes, linking Jos with Kano in the North-West and Owerri in the South-East. The agreement was inked on November 9th, 2026.

Under the terms of the MoU, flights to each destination will commence this month and operate twice weekly. This development is expected to ease travel for residents in these regions and boost economic activities.

The Plateau State Government has been proactive in its efforts to improve infrastructure and boost the state’s economy. This partnership with United Nigeria Airlines is another stride towards achieving these goals.

United Nigeria Airlines, a Nigerian carrier, has been expanding its network and recently added Abuja and Enugu to its flight schedule. The addition of these new routes to its network will further strengthen its position in the domestic aviation market.

It is worth noting that the Nigerian aviation sector has been undergoing significant growth in recent years. The expansion of flight routes and the entry of new players like United Nigeria Airlines are positive signs for the industry’s future.
