The National Hajj Commission of Nigeria (NAHCON) has inaugurated the Aviation Monitoring Committee for the 2026 Hajj exercise.
The committee is a non-decorative body, focusing on pilgrim welfare and safety.
The committee will review and evaluate documents submitted by applicant airlines and cargo carriers, inspect airport readiness for Hajj operations, and monitor inbound and outbound flights to ensure compliance with airlift agreements and industry standards.
The Nigerian Government, under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s vision, views facilitating the spiritual journey as a sacred trust.
