The United Arab Emirates (UAE) flag carrier Emirates flight landed at the Murtala Muhammad International Airport (MMIA), Lagos, on Tuesday.
This is coming two years after the suspension of operation by the airline over several issues including unresolved trapped funds belonging to the airline.
However, the flight EK 783 which touched down at the old terminal of the MMIA at exactly 3:32 pm arrived with several empty seats on its Boeing 777-300ER.
Though the number of passengers on board could not be immediately ascertained, several passengers who spoke with our correspondent said there were many empty seats on the flight.
Our correspondent who was at the MMIA reports that while the departing passengers were processed at the new terminal, returning passengers arrived via the old terminal.
The Boeing 777-300er (Extended range) has a capacity of 392 passengers.
One of the passengers said, “The flight was not full at all but as usual the services were very good. And I think this is understandable being the first flight after many years.”
