How is the airport now same old same old or improved. I've only been there once but it's as if I've never even been there. So can yous please send pics and info

This is all i was able to get

Thanx men I appreciate that

It's not as bad as its made out to be, before security its a bit chaotic (very) but once you get through customs (seems quite slow sometimes) it's quite a respectable airport.

My only complaints really are the late 60's decor in some parts, uncomfortable seating and shops have been closed by customs.

those pics are old ,

But thats what it still looks like,

really? if thats so then , its all good

but i doubt it! those are internet pictures!!

maybe a "real" pic thats close up would be ideal , did u take pics when u got to the airport?? @ Hunter _{(not family pics)}

The airport is still the same as ever,

Loverbwoy, I only have one picture and thats of a plane
I don't like getting my camera out (apparantly you're suppose to clear it with security before taking any pictures, )

It's sus to change. if some cash rolls in. thanx guys and gilrz.

I think the terminal is the least of the problems though, appararantly frequent power outages to important systems happen as well.

The frequent power outages is important but simple, I don't get how people screw in the simplest of things but can excel in other things. I hear Einstein couldn't even tiehis shoe laces. -------found some pics on Wikipedia.com from what I've heard on that site the place is so much better so much better Ja use a window shopper

I should mention that my father used the airport the other day and confirms that the shops are all open again

yea the shops and stuff are all open

Dblock is back once again, I gotta stop taking breaks off this wonderful site, hey badman how many shops are there. I remember 2001 was in the airport and fixed my eyes on a maccosa poster really wanted to buy the CD but couldn't I would pay a billion bucks to get that CD. Maccosa rulzzzzzzz.

Dont know the exact number, but they not that much, Dnt like to shop there their prices are not inviting so just pass through most of the time,

its still the same old place. They need friggin ACs in there. As soon as i got off the plane, the heat that attacked me from the tunnel made me realise i was in nigeria. This was just in January, i was so irritated when i got there.

Its not only heat attack. People attack, missing baggage is the problem. My own bag got missing, spent 1hr searching for the bag after landing. Later, i had to go to their ogas office upstairs, where someone advised i should go check out and if possible, "see" the oga.

I was so surprised, I found my bag right where it was described. How they knew where I was coming from, I didnt know. I had to part with a 5,000 bucks(JYen) though.

@ Kimba!
Lol. I was so irritated that I felt like leaving without my luggage. I just couldnt stand the heat, I almost went coocoo.
Damn nigerian heat can drive u nuts. Wonder how I dealt with it before leaving the country
They dont even have the friendliest faces at the airport, most of the people there look so darn miserable. I was like, "The Heck"!. Then some Army Man pulled me aside asking me the dumbest questions, where were u born( while lookin at my passport). I was like up ur ass, around the corner. Didnt mean to be feisty, but Damn the heat!

What up badman888

truth:

the local airport (like when u fly to and from benin for example) is good, new, clean, A/C is there

the international one and the other local one is still rather rough and is nothing compared to the older one; it's not what i would call horrible though

How far is the local airport from the international airport? Is it located in the area?
