Arik Air has offered special rebate to all categories of serving and retired personnel of the Nigerian Army, Nigerian Navy and Nigerian Air Force.

The airlines said in a statement that the applicable fare starts from N20, 000.00 for one-way economy class ticket on any of its domestic routes.

The airline’s chief executive officer, Capt. Roy Ilegbodu said the scheme, which is part of the carrier’s corporate social responsibility is a way of supporting the Armed Forces to discharge its duties.

“Arik Air is pleased to be of service to the officers of the Armed Forces of Nigeria. We are a truly Nigerian carrier and we feel the need to support the gallant officers and men of the Armed Forces who toil day and night to defend the territorial integrity of our country and keep us safe,” he said.

To enjoy the special fare which is available at the airport ticketing offices and city ticketing offices of the airline nationwide, passengers must present a valid military identity card plus any other valid identity card – driver’s license, international passport, national identity card and permanent voter’s card – at point of sale and check-in.

In addition, reservation and ticketing has to be made not later than 72 hours before flight.
