Emirates and Etihad Launch New Travel Insurance to Enhance Trust in UAE Tourism

Two of the United Arab Emirates' leading airlines, Emirates and Etihad Airways, are set to introduce travel insurance initiatives to enhance confidence among international visitors and support the country’s tourism sector. The move comes amid ongoing regional uncertainties that have affected travel insurance availability and traveler confidence. (Condé Nast Traveller India)

Etihad Airways has partnered with Abu Dhabi's Department of Culture and Tourism and insurance provider Daman to offer complimentary medical travel insurance to eligible international passengers arriving in Abu Dhabi. The coverage, available from July to December 2026, provides up to 15 days of medical protection within the UAE and is automatically included with qualifying tickets at no extra cost. (Etihad Global)

Meanwhile, Emirates is working with insurance providers to develop an affordable travel insurance package designed to reassure visitors travelling to Dubai. The proposed policy is expected to include guarantees that help passengers return home even in the event of travel disruptions, addressing one of the major concerns among international travelers. (Condé Nast Traveller India)

Industry leaders believe these initiatives will strengthen the UAE's appeal as a global tourism destination by providing visitors with added security and peace of mind. With air traffic steadily recovering and the country welcoming thousands of international travelers daily, the insurance offerings are expected to play a key role in encouraging more tourists to visit the UAE's major destinations, including Abu Dhabi and Dubai. (Condé Nast Traveller India)

The new measures reflect the commitment of both airlines and tourism authorities to ensuring a safe, seamless, and enjoyable travel experience for visitors while further supporting the growth of the UAE’s tourism and aviation sectors. (Etihad Global)

Air Peace Bags Brazil Approval for Direct Lagos–São Paulo Flights

Nigeria's leading airline, Air Peace, is set to deepen air connectivity between Africa and South America through its direct Lagos–São Paulo route, a development expected to boost tourism, trade, and cultural exchange between Nigeria and the South American countries.

The route is part of broader efforts to strengthen bilateral relations between the two countries and provide travelers with a faster and more convenient travel option. Once fully operational, the service will significantly reduce travel time between Lagos and São Paulo, eliminating the need for multiple stopovers and making travel more accessible for business and leisure passengers.

Industry stakeholders believe the direct connection will open new opportunities for tourism growth in both nations. Nigerian travelers will gain easier access to Brazil's renowned attractions, including its vibrant cities, cultural heritage, and natural wonders. Likewise, Brazilian tourists will have greater opportunities to explore Nigeria's rich cultural diversity, historical landmarks, and growing tourism destinations.

Beyond tourism, the route is expected to facilitate increased trade and investment by providing a seamless link between Africa's largest economy and Latin America's largest economy. Business travelers, entrepreneurs, and investors are anticipated to benefit from improved connectivity, fostering stronger commercial partnerships.

The initiative also highlights the growing role of aviation in promoting international cooperation. By enhancing air links between Nigeria and Brazil, Air Peace is positioning itself as a key player in expanding global connectivity while supporting economic growth, tourism development, and cultural exchange across the Atlantic.

The Lagos–São Paulo service represents another milestone in Nigeria's aviation sector and underscores the potential of direct international routes to drive tourism and strengthen diplomatic and economic ties between nations.

Nigeria Grants 30-Day Visa-Free Entry to Rwandans

In a major initiative aimed at fostering strong diplomatic relations and boosting economic cooperation, the Federal Republic of Nigeria has now implemented a 30-day visa-free entry policy for the nationals of Rwanda.

This policy will act as the reciprocation of an existing arrangement that ensures that citizens of Nigeria receive the same 30-day visa-free facility while visiting Rwanda.

Important Aspects of the Policy

Length of Stay: Nationals of Rwanda can visit Nigeria and stay there without holding any visa for a period of 30 days.

Activities Allowed: The policy permits the entry of Rwandan nationals into Nigeria for legitimate activities such as tourism, business visits, commerce, investment opportunities, official engagements, and cultural interactions.

Status of the Policy Implementation: The policy has been fully implemented by the Nigeria Immigration Service and is now operational in all the international airports, land borders, and ports of Nigeria.

Policy Context and Other Implications

The policy has been concluded after the bilateral discussions held at the Urugwiro Presidential Villa in Kigali by the Nigerian President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the Rwandan President, Paul Kagame. These discussions took place during the Africa CEO Forum.

Apart from making travel easier, this joint agreement also aims to foster people-to-people links and improve trade within Africa. This is an important milestone towards achieving greater integration on the continent through the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA).
