United Nigeria Airlines has been admitted into the International Air Transport Association Multilateral Interline Traffic Agreement for passenger operations.
Chibuike Uloka, the airline’s spokesman, who announced this in a statement on Wednesday said it was a significant milestone in their global expansion strategy.
He said that by joining the MITA framework, United Nigeria Airlines had positioned itself to enter into code-sharing and interline partnerships with hundreds of IATA-member airlines worldwide.
He said it would significantly enhance the passenger experience through seamless, single-ticket itineraries, unified baggage check-ins, and smoother connections between UNA flights and those of major global carriers.
According to him, this landmark achievement, confirmed via IATA Memorandum ADMIN/INTERLINE/4811, follows strict compliance with PSC Resolution 780.
“It marks a pivotal moment for United Nigeria Airlines, transitioning from a domestic operator to a globally recognised player capable of seamless international collaboration.
“This strategic move not only expands our route network but also strengthens our capacity to welcome international connecting passengers, solidifying our commitment to providing a globally integrated travel experience,” he said.
The company said beyond regulatory approval, IATA-MITA was a gateway to the world as it validated its operational standards and aligned it with global best practices in aviation.
It said it was now ready to offer passengers unparalleled access to global destinations through strategic partnerships.
