A delegation from Flynas Airlines has paid a courtesy visit to the Kaduna State Pilgrims Welfare Agency (KSPWA) as part of preparations for the 2026 Hajj operations.
The visit, which took place on Monday, was aimed at assessing the agency’s level of preparedness and strengthening collaboration ahead of the pilgrimage. Flynas Airlines was allocated to Kaduna State by the National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) to airlift pilgrims to Saudi Arabia.
The delegation, led by the airline’s Head of Hajj and Umrah, Ashraf Al-Ubaid, alongside the Nigerian Coordinator, Ahmad Ruma, and the Head of the Nigerian Crew, Maryam Yunusa, was received by the Chairman of KSPWA, Salihu S. Abubakar, and other top officials of the agency.
As part of the visit, the team inspected key facilities, including the Kaduna State International Airport, the pilgrims’ transit camp at Mando, and the agency’s headquarters along Katsina Road, Kaduna.
Flynas Airlines assured the agency of a smooth and hitch-free 2026 Hajj operation, stressing the importance of sustained cooperation to ensure seamless airlift arrangements and the welfare of Kaduna pilgrims.
