“The Fastjet Nigeria management team will be led by Red 1, who will oversee day to day operations, while the Fastjet plc management team will bring its extensive experience and expertise of the lowcost airline industry to the partnership. Operating within Fastjet’s growing Pan-African organisation the partnership is planned to provide Fastjet Nigeria with an extensive distribution network.”
