All non-travelling passengers have been advised to stay away from the airport as the country gets ready for the gradual reopening of airports for flight operations.
This was disclosed by the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria on Monday, June 16, 2020, through a tweet post from the government aviation agency’s official Twitter handle.
FAAN announced that with the resumption of commercial flight operations at various airports, passengers who are not travelling will not be allowed into the airport terminal building.

This is part of the new protocol to be implemented by FAAN in adherence to the safety measures that had been announced by the Presidential Rask Force (PTF) for Covid-19, and Nigerian Centre for Disease Control (NCDC).
In preparation for the gradual reopening of commercial flight operations, FAAN advised passengers to maintain 2 meters’ distance from each other at the airports, while pointing out that those without face masks on would not be allowed into the airports’ premises.
