ValueJet launches VIKI, Africa’s first full-scale AI airline concierge

Nigerian airline ValueJet has launched VIKI, an AI-powered digital concierge that transforms passenger experience.

VIKI is a multilingual, text- and voice-enabled AI assistant accessible via WhatsApp and Telegram, allowing passengers to book and manage flights, check-in, and receive real-time updates.

“VIKI is more than a digital tool, she’s a symbol of our ambition to build smarter, safer, and more seamless experiences for travellers across Africa,” said Capt. Omololu Majekodunmi, Managing Director of ValueJet.

ValueJet is the first airline in Africa to deploy an AI concierge of this scale, addressing challenges in speed, convenience, and accessibility.

To access VIKI, users are to save 09160012700 to their device and start chatting.

Passengers are encouraged to check-in, modify reservations, and get answers to travel-related questions, all without visiting the airport or navigating traditional websites.
