Managing Director of the Nigerian Airspace Management Agency (NAMA), Engineer Nnamdi Udoh last week said  the introduction of the e-flight planning would help airlines to reduce flight delays and cancellation across all the airports in the country.

Speaking during a one day training programme for airlines in the country as part of its strategy in reducing flight delays at the nation’s airports, Engineer Udoh pointed out that the training was meant to educate airline operators on the need to imbibe e-flight planning to reduce flight delays and improve services to their numerous customers.

According to him, the e-flight planning was the central focus of the transformation from Aeronautical Information Service (AIS) to Aeronautical Information Management (AIM).

Engineer Udoh further described the training exercise as timely considering the on-going automation project of the AIS.
