PRESS STATEMENT
With effect from August 1st 2020 passenger service charge will be increased from one thousand naira to two thousand naira on local flights and from 50 dollars to 100 dollars on international flights.
The new charges was contained in memo to Airline Operators Committee signed by the managing director of FAAN Rabiu Yadudu who urged stakeholders to support the implementation of the reviewed tariffs.
According to The federal airport’s authority,the implementation of the new PSC is premised on the approval given by the minister of aviation.
The FAAN also disclosed in the memo that the value of the PSC is outdated as the review was long over due since the last review was done in 2011.
He said the old rate does not correlate with the prevailing economic situation and the index to meet the needs of today and future growth in passenger traffic and airport development most especially for the airports to upgrade post covid 19 standards.
