The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has urged airlines operating in the country to uphold customers’ rights following increasing complaints about flight cancellations and delays.

He reminded airlines of their obligations to promptly inform passengers of schedule changes, delays, or cancellations and to provide necessary compensation, refreshments, accommodation, and alternative travel arrangements where applicable.
