It said the aircrafts in operation were Aero Contractors, Arik Air, Air Peace, Azman Air, Dana Air, First Nation, Med-View and Overland. Arik, which worked 4,926 flights, beat the graph of postponed and scratched off flights with 2,801 and 99, separately.

"With over a hundred flights every day, this restricted supply of flying fuel has come about, deplorably, into flight delays and in some cases inside and out cancelations. "We speak to our esteemed travelers to hold up under with us right now, even as we stay focused on giving protected and agreeable flight encounter,'' the announcement said.
