The airline stated that as more aircraft return from maintenance, it will resume suspended routes gradually and increase frequencies to selected destinations.
The statement also revealed that Air Peace will be deploying its two brand new E195-E2 aircraft for scheduled operations very soon as the jets are currently operating demo flights.
