OP, thanks for this thread. I did not know Conti flies to Nigeria but best of all they arrive at 1:40P which gives me ample time to get the heck out of Lagos quickly and get to Ibadan same day.

Continental is a USA based airline so like Delta, etc they are world class.

WAVixen:

@ Genga 77, yes it's United I mean. Will be using it and curious about services, baggage allowance.

EuroMeko are you talking about United Airlines?

WAVixen:

lol @EuroMeko. I feel you. Thanks for the responses.

Gbenge 77:

You may also want to try Delta which flies direct to Atlanta on a cool boeing 777-200.They also serve  Nigerian delicacies on board.Not cheap though

dancewith:

What is your concern? Of course they are good to fly with. They use ORD as their hub just as Delta use Hartsfield Jackson in Atlanta. I really don't get what your issue is. Maybe u think its another Arik air

I just hope that they don’t spray that air freshener stuff into the airspace in the cabin before take off like BA and KLM. The Royal Dutch airlines, KLM did that sh-t two months ago. What I found interesting is that they only sprayed it on our way from Lagos to the Schipol in Amsterdam, but they did not spray it on our way to Detroit. I guessed that since the demographic of most customers on board at that time had changed from Nigerians to American Caucasians no need for them to spray it. Were they suggesting that we stink or was it standard procedure?

Omo forget story ooo. The mosquitoes in yankee are like 5 billion times the number in naija. Only difference is that they don't carry the malaria parasite and they usually don't breed in the cities. I was in south texas recently and if you see the size of the mosquitoes you go runnn. HUGE m***f***kers. You need to see mosquitoes chasing people during the day, BROAD DAYLIGHT. At least naija mosquitoes go still follow you play hide and seek or shina rambo for night. The ones in south texas are VICIOUS.

All the spraying of insecticide is just nonsense.

I can attest to this as I unfortunately have to admit to have lived in God forsaken Texas for 4 years.

The Mosquitoes there are definitely huger but they don't feed on humans, the Chiggers, now those bites hard.

PS: everything is huge in Texas.

I sat back and i was just reading what everyone was saying about united airline, well I work with United airline in Lagos, (don't ask for my email), as at October 2010, United airline merged with Continental airline making them the largest airline in the world, if in doubt try check www.google.com.


United started flying into Nigeria in December 13, 2010, with a B767-300 series aircraft, the route, LOS is being shared with ACC (accra) being a US carrier, and you know US is number 1 for security now (don't ask me how, I know) passengers deplane in ACC when the flights land in ACC either from the US or from LOS.

In November, Continental airline will be flying to LOS, a direct flight between lagos and Huston (LOS-IAH), they plan to bring the B787 dreamliner but due to delays it will operate B777 out of lagos in November (so watch out for that).

The reservation office in lagos (for now) is
