The revolution sweeping through the Nigerian's aviation industry
is likely to cause discomfort to private jet owners as a new policy
introduced by the Federal Government has come up with stringent
conditions for their operations.
The long awaited
National Civil Aviation Policy, 2013, which took the Federal Government
over one year to prepare, was finally unveiled on Friday with severe
rules for private jet owners in the country.
The
policy has barred individuals with private jets from carrying their
friends and business associates on board the aircraft, stating that only
members of their families are allowed aboard.
It
states further that companies with private jets are permitted to carry
only their employees or members of the Boards of Directors.Moreover,
the policy has also directed that the identities of all passengers
onboard any private jet must be made known through a manifest before air
traffic control clearance will be sought.
