Lagos to Abuja on God is Good Motors is 35k
Dana is charging less than 50k for a flight
Valuejet is less than 60k

NOwazobia:
Na wa oooo...


How much be Bus fare again... 😒

DenreleDave:


For folks like me and some many others who haven't boarded a plane before because we can't afford it, this increment will only make the hope of boarding on a plane draw longer....

If i never get money to take it when it was 50k, shey na when dem increase am to 250k, na hin I go get the money to take flight within Nigeria. So I rather go for train or bus 🚍

Nigerians just always love to extort Nigerians

Pierocash:
Make it 600k. Thieves.

ShortBiscuit:
Why is it that a currency ($) that Nigeria doesn't own nor print keeps having such an insane influence on our local economy??

mrvitalis:
I honestly don't get why u can get flight from London to Paris for under £50 ... There are flights under £20

Their pilots earn more, their workers generally earn more than Nigerian aviation workers by a factor of over 7

Aviation fuel is way cheaper in Nigeria

So why exactly is flight far more expensive in Nigeria

I honestly can't get it honestly

seborrhic:

Honestly,the distortion and paradox is puzzling.
Far higher paid workers,higher taxes,more regular and therefore costlier maintenance, yet their fares are still cheaper than that of Nigeria.
It just doesn't add up and doesn't seem to make sense.

Mcreloaded:

Because we import everything we consume and you can't buy things from another country in naira.
Learnt thus in primary 1

Acidosis:
Frankly, airline is relatively cheap. No justification for charging less than 60k for a 1 hour trip while God is Good Motors charge around 30k for a journey of over 10 hours with high risk (robbery, kidnapping). In fact, airline only increased their fees recently. It's always been a 10-15k difference between airline and road trips (totally not worth it). Airline operators have been fair.

You won't say this if you run a business under the current atmosphere even if its pure water you are selling, but I won't blame you since your work is extorting struggling bus and Keke drivers and threatening to break their side mirrors and windscreen while screaming "Owomida and Owo Shiaman"

It's greed of the black man... The airline operators won't disclose the exact amount of money they make with just one trip carrying hundreds of passangers.. not to talk of the multiple trips per day and amount they make on weekly and monthly basis.
They have formed cabals in the aviation industry to be milking Nigerians just like other sectors.

One bus will carry 18 - 22 people max at 35k for 10 - 14 hours journey but plane will lift as much as 400+ passangers at once for airbus for a 1hr 15mins trip.
They are telling us rubbish just to jistify their own 419 activities.

Please, if someone provides a plausible answer, do mention me.

I see fares in Asia and I'm flabbergasted by ours.
