The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has issued a stern warning to private jet owners involved in commercial flight operations, threatening to revoke their operating licenses if they continue such activities.

Michael Achimugu, the director of public affairs and consumer protection at NCAA, reiterated the authority’s stance in a statement released on Wednesday.

According to Achimugu, owners of permits for non-commercial flight (PNCF) are strictly prohibited from using their aircraft for the transportation of passengers, cargo, or mail for payment or compensation.

“The Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) wishes to warn holders of Permit for Non-Commercial Flight (PNCF) (private jet owners) to desist from engaging in commercial flight operations forthwith or face stiff penalties,” he stated.

“It will be noted that holders of PNCF are not permitted to use their aircraft for carriage of passengers cargo or mail for hire or reward (commercial operations or charter services).

“In line with Section 32 (4) of the Civil Aviation Act 2022, the NCAA will not hesitate to initiate enforcement actions against any PNCF holder found guilty of illegal operations with suspension, withdrawal or revocation of their Permit for Non-Commercial flight.

“The public is hereby notified that it is illegal to engage PNCF holders for commercial purposes. NCAA  officials have also been deployed to General Aviation Terminals (GAT) and private wings of the airports to monitor activities of the PNCF holders.

“The NCAA wishes to restate its zero tolerance for violations of the Nigeria Civil Aviation Regulations 2023 and shall continue to enforce strict compliance through the application of appropriate sanctions.”
