Air Peace 14-Hour Flight To China Breaks Nigerian Aviation Record

Air Peace, Nigeria’s foremost airline on Tuesday made another history as its Boeing 777-200ER (P4 5-NBVE) landed in Beijing, China, after a 14-hour direct flight.

According to a satellite image, the plane landed at 14:18pm local time in China.

The Air Peace was in China to airlift the Federal Government’s medical supplies for the fight against COVID-19.

This is the first time a Nigerian airline would be doing a direct non-stop 14 hours flight to China.

The plane made a return flight to Nigeria moments after landing in China and arrived in the country this afternoon with the medical supplies alongside a 15-man Chinese medical team.
