I've passed through those airports before. They have a very nice atmosphere.

But Heathrow (except terminal 5) is a hell-hole.

Yeah, they pack 50 pounds worth of stuff into their carry-on, it's totally ridiculous...

but the clapping part....ah, 2legit, you sure you've not been travelling with fake Nigerians? Nigerians clap on landing, that one is a well known fact. I'm telling you, it's just Nigerians.

Those stuff are usually for family and friends back in Naija, or for sale at their shops.

I read the story of a 25 year old Nigerian lady who travels to London 6 times a year. She typically spends 2 weeks in London on each trip. Her shopping bill for just two weeks is around $7,500.
