Cheap flights to Lagos

One of the biggest cities in the world, and growing every day, Lagos is home to an exploding arts and culture scene. Combined with some of the best beaches in Nigeria, this pulsating city really draws you in.

When to book flights to Lagos

The best time to visit Lagos is very much dependent on the climate. Hot and dry for much of the year, the rainy season is when things get very wet. The rains are a welcome break from the humidity of the tropical south but can make visits a little more problematic and generally less convenient. Rainy season usually runs from March to November.

One of the best times to visit is from December through to January when the drying harmattan wind reduces humidity. But on the whole, the cultural powerhouse that is Lagos is a year-round destination. Whatever the time of year, it’s generally hot and humid, and there’s enough to see and do no matter what’s going on with the weather.

How to find the best flight deals to Lagos

If you really want to find cheap flights to Lagos, you are advised to book as early as possible. However, this is not the only way to get great deals on tickets. Expedia allows you to search smarter to save money when you book your flights.

When searching for flights to Lagos, use the ‘Nearby airports’ option. This expands your choice of departure and return points, letting you see if better deals are available from other convenient airports.

You can also click the ‘Show flexible dates’ button to see what else is on offer. Being flexible about the exact dates of your flights lets you find the cheapest airline tickets.

These include:

Main airports in Lagos

Murtala Muhammed International Airport is the main airport serving the city, named after the fourth military ruler of Nigeria. Around 40 airlines fly in and out of the airport, to around 60 destinations around the world.

While the services in the airport don’t quite reach European or American levels, they are catching up quickly. There are lounges, a bank, a post office and duty-free options.

Public transport isn’t great, so it’s recommended that you take a cab or book a private transfer. It can take between 30 and 60 minutes to reach the airport depending on traffic, so leave plenty of time to make your return flight.

Which airlines fly to Lagos?

Direct and indirect Lagos flights are available from numerous carriers.

These include:

  • British Airways
  • Virgin Atlantic
  • Lufthansa
  • Turkish Airlines
  • Royal Air Maroc

How to get around in Lagos

The best way of getting around is to hire a car with a driver, if you have the budget. They will know the best routes and also have the inside knowledge of the most interesting places to visit.

The Bus Rapid Transit scheme runs many services but these can be slow moving thanks to traffic. It’s a good idea to buy tickets in bulk before travelling.

Getting around in Lagos is generally much easier now than in the past, with good road signs making it easy to locate landmarks.

The city is safe enough to get around during the day, but despite efforts to reduce crime it can be a little risky in some places at night.

What are the must-sees in Lagos?

The main highlight of any visit to Lagos is the choice of more than a dozen beaches. Lagos Bar Beach is perhaps the most famous, with myriad bars and restaurants running along its length. Although it’s close to the city, it provides a welcome break from the bustle of the urban areas. Other beaches include Eleko beach, Lekki beach and Badgary.

Badgary is also where you’ll find the ancient slave port known as the ‘Point of No Return’. It was from here that countless thousands of people were forcibly sent to the New World to live a life of slavery.

Tips for travelling in Lagos

Some business travellers might be able to get a visa on arrival, but in general you are advised to apply for entry permission before you travel. You should also check whether you need a yellow fever certificate.

Swimming in the waters off the coast can also be dangerous due to strong currents and tides, so look out for warnings if you’re visiting the beach.

How to survive the flight to Lagos?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Lagos.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and remember to pack a jacket just in case you get cold. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
  • A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lagos?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Look out Lagos, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
