NCAA clamps down on illegal charter flights, warns private jet owners

The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) on Wednesday, issued a stern warning to private jet owners using their aircraft for commercial purposes without proper authorization.

Owners holding Permits for Non-Commercial Flights (PNCF) are specifically targeted in this crackdown.

According to the NCAA, these permits strictly prohibit the transportation of passengers, cargo, or mail for any form of payment or compensation. This essentially bans PNCF holders from operating charter services, which fall under commercial aviation.
