Kabo Air (Kano) has intends to enter the domestic Nigerian market with additional plans to resume scheduled flights to Cairo International, Dubai International and Jeddah International, abandoned in 2010. According to the company's Corporate Affairs Manager, Aminu Hamza, Kabo Air's management intends to resume domestic operations "soon" between Lagos, Kaduna and Abuja where fellow carrier, Chanchangi Airlines (NCH, Kaduna), also intends to operate. Kabo, traditionally a Hajj-specialist operator, originally planned to start domestic operations in 2009, but later cancelled the move as a result of not possessing the appropriate aircraft. It currently has one B747-400 and three B747-200s.
