Your questions about flights to Abuja, answered

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

  • What is the best way to get from the Abuja Airport to the city center?

    The airport recommends asking your accommodation to provide a private transfer from the airport to the address of your final destination, as this is the safest and most reliable option. However, you can also take a taxi, which should take no more than 40min to the city center; there is also public transport available, although it is less frequent. The Abuja Airport is now connected to the city center via a metro service. This is the first light-rail system in West Africa and is brand new. The metro service connects to the Abuja Central Business District and the journey takes about 40min. However, the metro only takes a few trips per day, so you will have to check the departure times when you land in Abuja. The metro service is located just a short distance from the airport and you can buy tickets with a credit card at a point of service machine or use cash at the ticket booth.

  • Can I rent a car from the Abuja Airport?

    Yes, there are several car rental companies onsite at the Abuja Airport, including Sixt, Beeshop, Rhezon, and more. Renting a car is a great and safe way to explore the city and its surrounding areas.

  • Are there services for passengers with limited mobility at Abuja Airport?

    Yes, as Abuja Airport is fairly modern, the facilities, such as the lounges, restrooms, cafes, and public transport options, are accessible to passengers with limited mobility. However, if you require extra assistance, contact your airline in advance.

  • Can I exchange money at the Abuja Airport when I land?

    Yes, there are several services available in the international terminal when you land where you can exchange currency. There are several ATMs located throughout the terminal if you’d like to withdraw cash using a bank card, or there are also banking services where you can exchange cash. However, if you’re going to exchange cash instead of using an ATM, it is recommended to do this before you leave your origin point. The currency used in Nigeria is the naira.

  • What are the passport and visa requirements when flying to Abuja?

    When flying from the United States to Abuja, you will have to provide an active passport that will be active for a minimum of six years from the day you land in Abuja. The passport should also have a blank page for stamps. You will also need a tourist visa. We recommend that passengers arrange a tourist visa with the Nigerian embassy in advance.

  • Which services does Abuja Airport offer to people with disabilities?

    Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport (ABV) offers various services to ensure that passengers with disabilities have a smooth stay at the airport. The airport has wheelchairs and special seats to help the sick, aged, pregnant, and injured moving around the airport. It also contains accessible restrooms, public transportation, cafes, and lounges to help those with reduced mobility.
