Nigeria Airways was founded on 23 August 1958.[1]: 51  It succeeded the folded West African Airways Corporation (WAAC), and was initially named WAAC Nigeria. The company took over the WAAC assets and liabilities and started operations on 1 October 1958.[2] In association with Pan American Airways (PAA), the Lagos–New York City route was opened in October 1964 using PAA's DC-8 and Boeing 707 aircraft.[3]
