The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has said that he may not approve the summer schedule of foreign airlines if they refused to patronise Nigerian caterers.
Following the not too good treatment meted out to Nigerian passengers by foreign airlines, Keyamo has directed Air France to return some Nigerian passengers left stranded at Lome, Togo by yesterday night, back to the country.
Summer schedule is take-off and landing rights given to airlines to operate to particular airports and according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), summer schedule begins on the last Sunday of March and ends on the last Saturday of October.
