When to fly
December is the cheapest month in the calendar here, so if your dates are flexible, start there. Fares run from October through June on this page, and the months either side of December show how much the price moves with the season. If you travel close to Christmas or in the school-holiday weeks, look well ahead. It also pays to compare a couple of dates either side of your first choice, since moving a departure by a day can change the fare.
Airlines and what to expect
Full-service names dominate this list: Qatar Airways, Emirates, Etihad Airways, Saudi Arabian Airlines, Ethiopian Airlines, Egyptair, Kuwait Airways and Oman Air, with Fly Dubai and Air Cairo at the budget end. On the two low-cost carriers, checked baggage and meals usually cost extra, while the full-service fares normally include them. You can take this route nonstop or with a stop, and the connection point shows on the itinerary before you pay, so judge by total travel time, not the fare alone.
Arriving — Kano
Arrange your transfer before you land: Aminu Kano International sits a short drive from the centre of Kano, and a hotel pickup or a taxi with the price agreed ahead of time is the usual way into town. Keep your passport and entry paperwork to hand for the arrival hall, and check whether your accommodation sends a driver, since sorting one out at the gate can cost you time.

Check before you book
- If your itinerary includes a connection, keep both flights on one ticket or leave plenty of time between them, because a second flight bought separately is at your own risk when the first runs late.
- On Fly Dubai and Air Cairo fares, check whether checked baggage and meals are included or cost extra.
- Check the visa and entry rules for Nigeria that apply to your nationality before you pay.
- Departures leave from King Abdulaziz International, so confirm your terminal and how long the drive to the airport takes.
- Weigh December against the months either side of it in the calendar before fixing a date, since it is the cheapest month here.
