Ibom AIr made this announcement:

In terms of its long-term fleet program, Ibom Air has announced that it is ending its wet leased aircraft operations. This comes in the wake of the delivery of the Company’s brand-new Airbus A220-300.

The new aircraft, the first of 10 (ten), was ordered from Airbus in October 2021.

With the imminent entry into service of the A220, the ‘place holding’ work of the 2 wet-leased Airbus A320s now comes to an end. 

The transition from the wet leased aircraft will result in a reduced flight schedule for a few weeks as the first two A220s are phased into service.

Ibom Air has a fleet of eight aircraft: five (5) Bombardier CRJ900s, two (2) leased Airbus A320s, and one (1) Airbus A220-300, covering eight destinations. 

Ibom Air currently flies to 5 cities within Nigeria: Uyo, Abuja, Calabar, Enugu and Lagos.
