How to get the best deal on a Lagos — Washington, D.C. ticket

  • Given the low flight frequency (about twice a week), we recommend booking your tickets 8–10 weeks before departure to ensure seat availability and access to basic fares.
  • Use the low-price calendar on this page: shifting your departure date by just one day in September can reduce the ticket price to AED 2,497.
  • Since United Airlines is the primary carrier, check the baggage rules carefully—on transatlantic flights, "no baggage" fares can differ significantly in price.
  • Monitor the price dynamics chart to catch the moment when the cost of flying from Nigeria to the USA drops below the annual average.
