The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has officially granted Heliconia–EAN Aero Nigeria an Air Operator Certificate (AOC), authorizing the company to commence charter flight operations across the country. The approval follows the operator’s successful completion of all regulatory, technical, and safety requirements mandated by the NCAA.
With this certification, Heliconia–EAN Aero Nigeria is now empowered to offer non-scheduled passenger and cargo services nationwide. An AOC is a crucial regulatory endorsement confirming that an aviation operator has met stringent operational and safety benchmarks.
Industry analysts have welcomed the development, describing it as a positive boost for Nigeria’s expanding charter flight market. The sector has continued to experience rising demand from corporate executives, the oil and gas industry, and high-net-worth individuals seeking flexible, time-efficient travel alternatives.
The NCAA emphasized that the approval reflects its ongoing commitment to strengthening safety oversight and maintaining high standards within the aviation industry.
Heliconia–EAN Aero Nigeria is expected to announce details of its charter service packages in the coming weeks as the firm prepares for full-scale operational rollout. Visit www.jocomms.com for more news.
