You would have bought Turkish airways. They are on promo. Relatively cheap like 200k economy.
And you can pay $20 to Turkish immigration and enter Istanbul -turkey and shop. Am also travelling to Vienna in matter of weeks. Am first going to Milan before Vienna.

Ugosample understand your pain but with all the talk and more talk ..we still have not produced the necessary economic power and respect in the world even though we have the resources do this , until we own up and actual admit something is missing then the change will happen . The problem with you Ugosample African-centric activist is that you talk too much and always blame the whites for taking away your wealth ( even though this happened years ago ) , the whites have gone now , guess what , you are still blaming them , most black nations have been given the so call independence but still they are still under developed and ravaging in untold poverty and unbelievable inability to make anything happen ...at the end of the day , the chinese and the jews suffered more than most African nations but they have managed to be self reliant and thrive ..I know the answer to your problem but I will not tell you today ..


Actually I don't blame the whites for anything o

I was just using that as a reference that as humans we are free to migrate as you like.


That said, I believe in the law of nature, what you conquer becomes yours, that is why there is a caliphate in Nigeria , and based on that, I exonerate white folks for whatever

That's the way the world is.

And I am not "Pan Africanist" either

I think it's dumb and stupid

I have studied and lived amongst my people, as well as other ethnic groups (well apart from Arabs) and I have seen how wicked and soulless a lot of Africans are.

That is the main reason why Africa is fvcked

Music for example is a reflection of the society, and when you listen to African (well let me say Nigerian music) all you hear is "haters" and "enemies"

That aptly describes the prevalent African for you

Or which other ethnic groups talk about "village people" the most. You guessed right grin grin

Who does Pull him Down the most

You guessed right again

Who are the ones trafficking their fellow black men in their huge numbers to Arab slave holders in their numbers?
black folks

Even a report indicted diplomats of African diplomats


I don travel and I don see enough mehn.


And in the midst of all that chaos, who would blame any one for wanting to leave the $hithole

The only legal way open to some sort of residence is through a study permit or a work permit. Nigeria not being deemed a country in crisis Nigerians are not really eligible to claim asylum (if some parts of the country are in crisis, then residents can flee to the other parts of the country), so those are your options basically.

You also have the option of contracting a valid and genuine marriage with an Austrian citizen or an EU citizen exercising their rights of free movement and residing in Austria.

Wise one!!! God bless

Kindly clarify dat 20usd to immigration in Turkey for transit visa..as many persons plan according to infos gotten here..
Let me explain what i kno of Turkish transit single visa

Once u ave a valid shenghen,uk,usa visa u would need a transit turkish visa b4 arrival if u wish to spend days in istanbul..

Either embassy visas or cable visas..(online visa) below is the process and fees

Filling of the form and 60usd for visa and another 40usd govt charges..making a 100usd or + for the cheapest visas urgent visas come expensive than d total of 100usd

20usd for turkish transit visa is not true sir

The number of Turkish Airlines passengers fighting over lost luggage at MMIA can be discouraging. Also, I would much rather transit through Amsterdam or Paris than Istanbul.I prefer the white man's brand of racism to that of the Turks, Arabs or Indians.

Turkish Airlines are relatively cheaper, but most times they have very long layovers in Istanbul, like 10 or even 15 hours, you may lose your mind cheesy

I have attached a screenshot of a flight itinerary from London to Lagos, using Turkish Airline

You know most of these National carriers mostly stop over their State/Country of Origin, for maintainance, to serve as connecting flights, bureaucratic reasons or other reasons unknown to me

Like Fly Emirates will mostly stop over in Dubai
Etihad will mostly stop by in Abu Dhabi
Klm.... Amsterdam
Air France.. charles de gaulle Airport, Paris
Etc..

I advice everyone that plans to travel out of the country to Europe to first travel by road to Ghana but make sure u travel with one of this registered transportation company like Chisco, GIG and so on. And after some months again travel to Togo republic again by road so ur passport will be full. And it shows you have broken the veil of the passport. From experience bcuz those immigration officers and other security agencies at the port are rogues.

Good, we're all learning.
It should be: I live in the eastern part of....

Then, I think you should also learn the correct use of: Taught (past tense of teach) and Thought (past tense of think)

Sorry for the delay guys sad

So I was able to locate my boarding gate and queued up for boarding when it was time. We passed through the necessary checks and lined up to enter the plane. We were directed through a narrow tube that kept winding left and right and would bounce you up with every step. It felt good, I felt good too.

Then we came to a door where two white female KLM crew stood smiling at every one and muttering some word I could not hear from afar. But by the movement of their hands, I could tell they were directing people somewhere. But where? Perhaps the final stop and search point. But I thought we have done all the necessary checks? These oyibo people too dey suspect blacks sha. Little did I know sad

It was now my turn, standing right on the door that seemed to be vibrating from underneath, I could not make out the nature of the cozy environment I just found myself in. Perhaps this is a scanning machine about to scan us for weapons shocked I was still lost in my world of imaginations when the lady demanded for my boarding pass. She looked at it and motioned me to the next door. Two steps through the door and the reality hit me. This is an airplane shocked I mean AIR GODAMN PLANE! The first couch (if that is the right word) was almost filled up, as my seat number falls in the second.

Then that claustrophobic feeling started setting in on me. And with each step I took, I felt as if I was going into a tunnel of no return. I wanted to turn back and leave, at least to set my eyes on the starry sky one more time, if not the last time. But the long queue of passengers pushing through behind me only forced me to go forward. I have been desiring this moment all my life and the moment is right here. Guess I wasn't prepared psychologically.

I located my seat and sat, and immediately went into the mood of prayer. A second later a woman touches me and with an American accent said am seating on her seat. She was gentle. She was calm. Short of words, I handed her my boarding pass, she then told me that the next seat in the middle is where I should sit. Right next to her. I adjusted. And so the frenetic movements of passengers continued until everyone was settled on his/her seat.

A female crew passed by my side and perhaps noticed me handling with my phone camera. She offered to take a picture of me and I obliged. She asked if could help me with anything else. Fly the damn plane to Holland and set me free , I muttered under my breath.

Moments later, a voice from the cockpit started speaking and I could barely pick out few words. Perhaps, Pilots are trained to fly and not to talk. Same way doctors are trained to cure and not to write. Good luck trying to decode a prescription written by a doctor angry Then I heard something like drop in air pressure, oxygen, in case of emergency evacuation, emergency exit , I prayed even more, hoping it will not be my portion sad At least none of my village people is aware of my travel grin

We were all set for take-off. The cabin crew did their job and prepared everyone for take off. The pilot fired up the engine, sped on the run way and up we went into the sky. Few seconds after take off, I felt the plane falling backwards, a feeling I would get in my subsequent flights. I am yet to understand why that happens. Up and up into the sky we went, on our way to Holland.

I live in turkey and the both of you don't really know the load down

Let me give you the accurate info

If you have a valid schengen visa,USA, UK

All u need do is go online and buy turkish evisa for $40 and you can enter turkey if you want or you can buy it at the airport for the same price.. you don't need no transit visa and besides as a Nigerian you can only get transit visa from Turkish embassy in Nigeria.. let's always try and give out real info's

Do you mean to say Turks are more racist? .... If your impression was this... It's a bigggggg no. Turks are more accommodating than any white guys I have seen(especailly to blacks) . I have been practically every where.... So I am talking
from experience.

They prefer the blacks more than the Iranians and the Georgians even in business.

Turks help selflessly.... With looking at your colour... I remembered when I was in Ankara.. I was like a whiteman in Africa... They were asking to take pictures with me..

I know the reverse might be the case in Istanbu is more cosmopolitan just like Lagos .. they hardly greet.. However they don't hate.

Unlike Italy where you are at first sight looked with a bad impression... Yeah.. Amsterdam is cool... No doubt

I agree with some of your points , especially the wickedness of our people , but other races are wicked too ( Hitler , Mosolini killing there own people ) , so we cannot blame it own wickedness along but they have managed to building cities and countries , where people can enjoy basic amenities irrespective of socio class . I have travelled around the world and every black neighborhood is run down poverty style and messed up , why ? ,
I have been thinking maybe this is linked to genetics ( but it cant be ) ... the problem as you rightly said , it is wickedness and we need to explain to our people or leaders that wickedness is bringing us to the brink of non-existence .
Another issue is the government style we adopted from the whites , it has never worked , democracy does not thrive is country where there are many tribes and majority are poor ,it has never worked , the only system that can work is parliamentary or monarchy system , like each region developed themselves , I believe we have a new generation of thinkers in Africa now that are coming up e.g Rwanda , Angola ..they have realized the answer to socio economic developement is to look inwards and developed economic powerbase and educational system that benefit Africans ..the answer is not a secret and its not under a rock , we just have to do what the Chinese and the jews did , . we should not be a Race of dependence and relying on other people to prop you up -you lose your respect that way .....I got a lot to say but today is not the day , by the way , will you respect someone that has everything to develop and be a powerbase but after years are still delinquent and a total dependent failure ? that's how the whites view us

This is London route flight. Time differs depending the route.
However because of long transit of 15hrs passengers may take it as an advantage to shop around Istanbul. That's my reason suggesting Turkish airways to the Vienna passenger.
