The desire to deliver real-time inventory and flight schedules to customers has inspired United Nigeria Airlines to integrate with Africa’s leading travel tech company, Wakanow.

With the partnership, the nation’s fastest-growing airline would provide a seamless booking experience for Wakanow customers and United Nigeria passengers.

It was gathered that by virtue of this collaboration, Wakanow is the only online travel agency with United Nigeria’s Live Inventory bookable in real-time.

“We are excited to commence this partnership with United Nigeria. With the support of Wakanow, the airline will concentrate on her core mandate which is moving travellers across the country while we will ensure that travellers have the best-in-class booking experience,” the CEO of Wakanow, Mr Adebayo Adedeji, stated.

Speaking further, he said, “We have promised our customers that we are the best plug for their local and international travels. We will continue to deliver on this promise and with this partnership, we have gone a step further to delight African travellers.”

Also commenting, the CCO of Wakanow, Mrs Adenike Macaulay, noted that with this integration, Nigerians should rest assured of a seamless booking experience for domestic flights with United Nigeria.

“Our expertise as an innovative travel tech company is a great value addition to the airline which will be leveraged extensively as we deepen our partnership. We will be upping the ante of the booking experience of United Nigeria airlines as a partner,” she said.

We are sure that their support for United Nigeria will aid our growth and overall success in the aviation industry.”

Also, the COO of the airline, Mr Osita Okonkwo, said as the airline operator continues to evolve and take on more destinations, the potential of the tourism sector of Nigeria will all be better known.

According to him, “Wakanow has demonstrated leadership in the travel industry, and we are sure that this will impact on our airline as well and provide the travelling public.

“It will complement United Nigeria’s objective of uniting cities, cultures, businesses, friends and associates through the delivery of safe and exceptional flight experiences to its customers.”
