Flying from Lagos to Enugu takes about an hour, compared with a road journey of roughly 8 to 10 hours or more. Flights leave from Murtala Muhammed Airport in Lagos, where airlines use either the MMA1 or MMA2 domestic terminal, and arrive at Akanu Ibiam International Airport (ENU) in Enugu, which also serves travellers heading on to nearby states in the South East. This route is extremely seasonal. Demand surges from mid-December as people travel east for Christmas and New Year, and again in early January for the return to Lagos, when fares can be several times higher than in quieter months.

Tips and advice

For Christmas travel, book your Lagos to Enugu flight by October or early November, and book the return to Lagos at the same time, since early-January flights back fill up just as fast. If your dates are flexible, travelling a few days before the main rush (around 15–18 December) or returning after the first week of January can cut the fare significantly. Outside the festive season, mid-week flights are usually cheapest. Check which Lagos terminal your airline uses, and arrive at least an hour before departure.
