On 12 June 2025, Air Peace operated the first ever nonstop flight from Nigeria to St. Kitts and Nevis, departing from Abuja's Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport and landing at Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport in Basseterre after a ten-hour flight. The service was arranged for the Afri-Caribbean Business Expo, carrying business delegations, government representatives, and creatives from Nigeria.
The flight was the airline's third Caribbean first in five years, following earlier nonstop services to Jamaica in 2020 and Antigua and Barbuda in 2023. It was operated by one of Air Peace's Boeing 777 aircraft and was a standalone charter, not a scheduled commercial service. For businesses and trade operators, the flight demonstrated the operational viability of direct Afro-Caribbean air links and the growing appetite for commercial and cultural exchange between the two regions.
