Camair-Co, the national airline of Cameroon is set to expand its West African reach with a new flight schedule to Abidjan, Ivory Coast via Lagos beginning 23 September 2013.
This was disclosed by Job Ikose Mbenda, Camair-Co International Sales Manager at the airline’s Nigeria travel agencies forum held in Lagos recently.
According to Mbenda, the decision by Camair-Co to commence the Abidjan route via Lagos is based on the huge interest and confidence the airline has vested in Nigeria’s bustling commercial city coupled with the yearnings of travelers.
“We are proud to commence the Douala-Lagos-Abidjan flight in September which is along the line of our vision to be the leading airline linking Atlantic Africa and the rest of the world,” Mbenda stated. He announced a new 9 percent commission for the Nigeria travel agencies on each ticket sold as an incentive from the airline for their continuous support.
Lagos/Douala return ticket costs about N56,175. Mbenda who had a stint with the now rested Air Nigeria assured the travel agencies that Camair-Co is now repositioned for better services with its continuous on-time departures as well as cutting edge customer-friendly services.
As part of the services, Mbenda mentioned the airline Star Awards with over two thousand members is continuing to reward frequent travelers with free tickets for their loyalty.
He further stated that the airline will take delivery of a B-777 aircraft by the end of the year and two B-787 dream liners by the end of 2014.
