For those considering a trip to Lagos, Nigeria in December, there’s one thing you can’t ignore- The flight cost.
While it’s true that airfare prices tend to increase during the festive season, there are several compelling reasons why this spike isn’t acting as a deterrent for tourists and Nigerians living in the diaspora flying back home.
For context, I travelled from London to Lagos on June 18, 2023 with a return flight on July 2, 2023 using Virgin Atlantic. I paid £822.21 for that economy flight in April 2023 (just two months before I was set to fly). Now, with three months till December (and at the time of writing this), flights from London to Lagos from December 18, 2023 to January 2nd 2024 cost £3092.61 for economy. The difference is clear.
