The NCAA said non-compliance with the COVID-19 protocol requirements could also lead to an outright ban of the non-compliant airline.

In an All-Operators Letter with reference NCAA/DG/AIR/16/327 issued to all accountable managers and signed by the Director-General NCAA, Captain Musa Nuhu, international airlines were reminded that the protocols for international flight operations and quarantine protocols for travellers arriving Nigeria issued on July 1, 2021 still hold sway.
