The United Arab Emirates, UAE, will on Thursday lift a ban on transit flights from Nigeria, India and Pakistan.
The National Emergency and Crisis Management Authority (NCEMA) said on Tuesday in a post via their Twitter handle.

Pakistan and India are important markets for Emirates, Etihad Airways and other UAE carriers flydubai and Air Arabia.
UAE, a major international travel hub, had banned passengers from many South Asian and African states from travelling through its airports this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Final destination approval would also have to be provided, the authority said, adding that UAE departure airports would arrange separate lounges for transiting passengers.
The transit ban had also included Nepal, Uganda, Nigeria and Sri Lanka.
