Vetifly, the pioneering uber for helicopter, will commence helicopter flights in Nigeria by April 2020. I confirm that our helicopters are on ground and all finishing touches largely completed. We had already informed members on the waitlist of this news, and also asked them to give us their flight routes.
Victoria Island to Ikeja Airport to/fro is live. Ibadan to Lagos to/fro is also live. More routes will be added as we scale the mission.
As a village boy, I am adding Lagos to Ovim (Abia state) as my additional route. Interestingly, Ovim has an old helipad which will get back to full use again, and that will serve Umuahia, Old Bende, Arochukwu, Okigwe, Ohafia, Isuikwuato, etc. With this, there is no more reason NOT to visit villages more often! So, if you are from that area, let us know.

Prof the village boy, I love the way you are constantly putting Ovim on the world map…. You are truly a genius…
Aha! Arochukwu here! Biko, add me. This time my elders will believe me when I say I’m coming. Lol. Excuses coming to an end. Thanks Prof. didn’t think you were Abian! Mazi Nnó. Great work.
Ugwunta Ovim to be precise. Good day. Yes indeed, they will!
Proudly Abian. Osusu, Isialangwa North precisely. At least bimonthly visits for a start.
Any update on Vetifly operations? What’s the sector outlook in the current situation? Is the sector getting crowded or lacking in appeal for other potential players? I ask because it makes for an interesting MBA case study.
It is at infancy. But we are focusing on B2B as most of the seats are now prepaid. Some banks have prepaid seats for months ahead.
Prof, any update on the Ovim route for folks travelling this Christmas?
