NAMA Pushes for Tariff Hike, Airlines Kick

The Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) has proposed an upward review of aviation tariffs to boost revenue for operational efficiency. The agency argues that the current rates are outdated and unsustainable amid rising operational costs.

However, airlines have strongly opposed the move, warning that higher tariffs could worsen their financial burdens and lead to increased ticket prices for passengers. Industry operators insist the timing is wrong, given the economic challenges and dwindling passenger traffic.

Stakeholders have called for dialogue between NAMA, airlines, and regulatory bodies to strike a balance between sustaining airspace operations and safeguarding the aviation sector from further strain.
