Following concerns raised by the flying public over the manner the Boeing 737 Max 8 belonging to Ethiopian Airlines carrying 157 passengers crashed on Sunday and safety issues raised over Boeing 737 Max 8 planes, the Management of Air Peace has urge members of the flying public to continue to choose Air Peace as their preferred airline and trust them to always act in their best interest.
The airline in a statement issued in Lagos yesterday by Mr. Chris Iwarah, Corporate Communication Officer, confirmed that although it recently placed a firm order for 10 brand new Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, it was yet to take delivery of the aircraft as it was still at the design and configuration stage of the order.
The airline added that the clarification had become necessary in view of numerous calls and enquiries on its response to the incidents involving the B737 Max 8 aircraft.
While stating that it was premature to comment on the incidents, it added that the move was to assure members of the flying public that it was closely following and monitoring developments on the issue as an airline that prioritizes the safety and well-being of its customers.
“While we keep engaging with our partners in this regard, we repose implicit confidence in Boeing and aviation authorities to capably and satisfactorily address all the issues if at the conclusion of ongoing investigations it is discovered that the challenge is with the B737 Max 8.
“We urge members of the flying public to continue to choose Air Peace as their preferred airline and trust us to always act in their best interest”, the airline said.
