Starting next month, Israelis might be able to travel to a new destination in Africa directly from Ben-Gurion Airport.
Nigerian airline Air Peace could start offering direct flights between Nigeria and Israel very soon, CEO Allen Onyema revealed this week in a meeting with the Israeli envoy to Nigeria.
The launch of the new flight route between Lagos and Tel Aviv, while not officially confirmed as of yet, could come as early as next month.
New potential line good news for Nigerian Christians
The 4,300 km. route would see the flight time between the two countries decrease significantly to only six hours. Currently, the travel can often include several transfers and usually takes longer than 10 hours.
The potential line is especially significant for many Nigerian Christians who wish to travel to Israel for its holy sites.
