The airlines made this known at the inauguration, which took place at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, Abuja, recently.
The Ugandan High Commissioner to Nigeria, Ambassador Nelson Ocheger, highlighted the impact of the new connectivity.
“This flight and those that are going to come, in my view, will impact Nigerians and other travellers in many ways.
“First and foremost, it is going to reduce the time spent to move from Abuja to Entebbe. The ministers mentioned that it took them three and a half hours to move from Entebbe to Abuja. Secondly, it is going to reduce the cost of transport,” he explained.
Ocheger further noted that the direct flight would facilitate cargo movement between the two countries, enhancing trade and business growth.
