Your Lagos to Chicago flight questions, answered

Find helpful route details based on KAYAK data, including flight times, airports, airlines and booking questions.

  • Which is the best airport in Chicago to land in?

    There are two major airports serving the city of Chicago - Chicago Midway International Airport (MDW) and O’Hare International Airport (ORD). While both serve the Lagos to Chicago flight route, Chicago Midway has far fewer options when compared to O’Hare. With O’Hare, you are more flexible with your flight options, although it is a busier airport - which means longer queues compared to Midway.

  • Are there any direct connections from Lagos to Chicago?

    At the moment, we don’t have any airlines offering direct connections between Lagos and Chicago. The best you can do is a one-stop flight with a layover in one of the European cities of Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Paris, or Istanbul - depending on the airline you’re traveling with. Other airlines such as Ethiopian Air will have their layover in Addis Ababa, while United Airlines has its layovers in Washington D.C. - where you will have an airport change from Washington Dulles to Washington Reagan.

  • Which airlines have the best unaccompanied minors service?

    Air France would be a good option to use when booking a ticket for your child to fly alone. Their unaccompanied minors service is mandatory for kids between ages 5 and 11 and comes with a lot of benefits. For starters, your child will be taken care of through the entire journey, including boarding and security clearance upon landing. In addition, you can track your child’s journey using the Air France App, which should give you added peace of mind knowing where your child is at all times during the journey.

  • How do I get from O’Hare International Airport to Downtown Chicago?

    Depending on your budget, you can either take a taxi or use the train to get to Downtown Chicago. The train is a budget-friendly option, as you pay only a fraction of the taxi prices, but it is not the most convenient. The CTA Blue Line, which connects the airport to downtown, will have several stops along the way and will require a separate way mens to get from downtown to your specific destination. On the other hand, a taxi will drop you at any location in the city or in the outskirts, making it far more convenient - especially when you have a lot of luggage.

  • Ethiopian Air has a baggage allowance of two checked bags and a carry-on for economy-class passengers. This isn’t the case with other airlines such as United, as you get an allowance of one carry-on item, with any checked bags incurring additional charges.
  • When commuting to Murtala International Airport (LOS) from Downtown Lagos, a taxi is the best option to use. While the Lagos buses are cheaper, they can be very inconvenient as they will take longer and are often crowded especially during rush hours.
  • If possible, consider upgrading to first class for this flight route. It would make the whole trip a lot more comfortable since you get better seats with extra legroom.
  • Lufthansa is the best option to choose when flying in Business Class. Their seats can be converted into a fully flat bed, you get top-quality dining service for your meals, an amazing selection of beverages, and you can use their lounge during your layover in Munich or Frankfurt Airport.
  • For a more sustainable trip, United Airlines is a good option to take. Their Compensaid program allows you to offset the carbon emissions released during your flight.
