Notes:

  • Prices in NGN; table created in 2025 and subject to change.
  • Lagos traffic can be extremely heavy, especially during morning (7–10 AM) and evening (4–8 PM) rush hours. Journey times can double or triple during peak periods.
  • Official airport taxis operate from designated stands outside the terminals with fixed rates to major destinations.
  • Ride-hailing apps (Uber, Bolt) are widely used and generally considered safe. Pickup points are designated at the airport.
  • The BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) does not serve the airport directly; travelers need to take a taxi or ride-hailing service to the nearest BRT stop in Ikeja.
  • We recommend checking official transport websites for your travel planning.
