The Aviation Ground Handlers Association of Nigeria (AGHAN) has instructed its members to suspend services to XEJET Airline due to the airline's outstanding debt of approximately N300 million. AGHAN accused the airline of repeatedly failing to fulfill payment agreements with ground handling companies, despite multiple attempts to recover the debt.
The association stated that several indigenous airlines had successfully resolved similar debt concerns by adhering to repayment schedules. However, XEJET was found to have failed to meet its commitments, leading to the suspension of services. AGHAN warned that other airlines indebted to its members could face similar sanctions if they do not comply with payment arrangements.
The debt has reportedly impacted XEJET's operations, including the transfer of passengers' check-in luggage to another domestic carrier.
