Connecting Nigeria's cities with reliable regional air service.

Founded

Headquarters
Lagos, Nigeria
Overland Airways is a Nigerian regional airline that operates scheduled passenger and cargo services across Nigeria and to select West African destinations. Founded in the early 2000s, the carrier has established itself as one of Nigeria's more resilient smaller carriers, focusing on underserved domestic routes. The airline is headquartered in Lagos and operates out of Murtala Muhammed International Airport as its primary hub. Overland Airways has maintained operations through periods of significant turbulence in Nigeria's aviation sector, distinguishing itself through consistent domestic connectivity. The carrier targets business and leisure travelers seeking alternatives to the larger Nigerian carriers, and has at times suspended and resumed operations in response to regulatory and financial pressures common in the West African aviation market.
