Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS)
Lagos, Nigeria
Overview
Murtala Muhammed International Airport is Nigeria's busiest airport and the main hub for travel in West Africa. It is a base for several Nigerian carriers and handles the bulk of the country's international traffic.
Terminals
The complex has an international terminal (MMA1) and a separate domestic area including the privately run MMA2 terminal. A newer international terminal building has added capacity.
Transport to city center

Travel tips
Use only official or pre-arranged transport and keep valuables out of sight. Allow plenty of time as Lagos traffic is notoriously congested.
