Nigerian airlines gain right to direct US flights

ABUJA (Reuters) - Nigerian airlines have gained the right to fly their own planes to the United States after an improvement in the West African nation's aviation safety standards, Nigerian and U.S. officials said.
Airline security in Africa's most populous country had come under heightened scrutiny last December following a failed Christmas Day bombing attempt on a U.S. airliner blamed on a Nigerian passenger with explosives concealed in his underwear.
