Discovery set to launch scheduled flight operations in Nigeria

Discovery Air (DCV, Lagos) is the latest Nigerian start-up aiming to launch operations before year end. In a press conference held in Lagos earlier this week, spokesman Benjamin Adigun said the airline had taken delivery of its first B737-300, one of three expected within the next month. "The aircraft which arrived in the country from England last month will be involved in demonstration flights as part of the process for the issuance of the Air Operator's Certificate (AOC)," he said. The start-up currently has two B737-300s: msn 28870 and 28571. The airline lists Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt Omagwa as its initial destinations though regional flights are also anticipated at some stage in the future.
