KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from New York to Lagos

  • Looking for a cheap flight? 25% of our users found flights on this route for $620 or less one-way and $2,123 or less round-trip.
  • Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS) is in the city of Ikeja in Lagos, one of 36 states in Nigeria. LOS is the only major commercial airport in Lagos and serves the entire state. The airport is virtually in the center of the state, but because of poor road conditions and distances, getting around may take longer than you expect.
  • Sometimes due to scheduling or the amount of luggage you have, taking a cab to any of NYC’s major airports—JFK, Newark (EWR), and LaGuardia (LGA)—is more convenient than tasking a series of trains on public transport. Cabs are easier, but they can be expensive. They charge a flat fee plus a surcharge depending on the time of day plus a tip, and this might cost close to $100. If you have trouble hailing a cab, you can take an Uber. It will be slightly more expensive.
  • Booking a transfer is the safest and most convenient way to travel from LOS throughout Lagos. This means you will have a private local driver who knows the area and who meets you at the airport when you arrive. Uber and regular taxi are the next best options. The public transit BRT buses go throughout the state, but for someone who is not familiar with the area, there are better options.
  • When you arrive at LOS, if you need to exchange your US dollars for Nigerian naira, look for Sulah and Moneylink kiosks and counters in the Arrivals area.
  • At LOS, Partners Health Company (PHC) offers wheelchair assistance to passengers as well as any assistance differently abled travelers might need.
