Arik Air will be among the key exhibitors at the inaugural Nigeria International Airshow scheduled to take place from December 2 - 4, 2025 in Abuja.

The event will bring together commercial and business aviation operators, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), regional regulators, defence and aerospace bodies, government institutions, and high-net-worth industry stakeholders.

Arik Air's participation provides a strategic platform for the airline to reinforce its market position, showcase its brand evolution, and re-engage the aviation community.
