Lagos–London is one of our two core West African corridors, flown nonstop in roughly six hours forty-five on a heavy or ultra-long-range aircraft. Lagos–Dubai is the other, at around seven hours fifteen.
Murtala Muhammed handles private traffic through a general-aviation terminal with fast-track immigration. The ground process in Lagos rewards preparation — we brief documentation before departure and have handling confirmed rather than arranged on arrival.
December is the busiest month of the year on this corridor as the diaspora returns, and outbound aircraft in that window need six to eight weeks. It is the single most predictable capacity squeeze in our network.
Lagos private terminal
Arrival and departure through the general-aviation facility at Murtala Muhammed, with fast-track immigration and handling arranged in advance. We confirm documentation requirements before you fly.
The two core corridors
Lagos–London ~6h 45m from about £75,000, and Lagos–Dubai ~7h 15m from about £70,000. Both nonstop on heavy or ultra-long-range aircraft. Inside Nigeria, Lagos–Abuja runs ~1h 10m on light and midsize jets.
December capacity
The December return window is the tightest of the year for outbound private traffic. Six to eight weeks’ notice is the difference between the aircraft you want and whatever is left.
What we arrange around the flight
Cars on both ends as standard, helicopter where the timing needs it, and the villa or suite and tables held before you land. See our Lagos concierge service for what that covers on the ground.
