The Chairman/CEO of Air Peace, Allen Onyema, commented on the development, saying, “Air Peace is delighted to have signed this partnership deal with Norse Atlantic Airways for the commencement of our London service. As we make a foray into the European market, we are confident that this strategic partnership will further position us to surpass the expectations of our customers, offering them a superior air travel experience.”

Beyond the immediate collaboration, both Norse Atlantic Airways and Air Peace have expressed their intent to continue discussions on potential longer-term partnerships.
