Emirates has resumed daily passenger services to Lagos of Nigeria. The daily service has been scheduled to optimise connections to and from key points in Europe, the US, Far East and the wider Middle East and GCC, streamlining business and leisure travel to and from Nigeria, says a press release.
The Dubai-Lagos service is operated with a Boeing 777-300ER, offering eight First Class suites, 42 Business class seats and 304 economy class seats, with added comforts and perks in each cabin class. Emirates is one of only two airlines offering First Class in and out of Lagos.
Emirates cargo transport division SkyCargo will support Nigerian businesses by offering more than 300 tonnes of bellyhold cargo capacity in and out of Lagos every week.
To support travel to Dubai or onwards, Emirates will also facilitate 48 hour and 96-hour Dubai visa applications for travellers from Nigeria, an offer which is exclusive to the airline.
