Notification of False Fire Alarm on Port Harcourt-Lagos Flight
We wish to inform the flying public of an incident that occurred during our Port Harcourt-Lagos flight P47193 of today, April 25, 2024.
Some minutes before landing, our Captain noticed a fire warning indicator in the cockpit. The pilots performed all safety precautionary measures and the fire indicator went off. The Captain immediately notified our Operations Control Center in Lagos at 17:37hrs.
It was determined upon landing that the alarm was falsely triggered as there was no fire event.
The aircraft landed safely, and all passengers disembarked normally.
We want to reassure the flying public that safety remains our utmost priority, and we are unwavering in our commitment to it.
