On arrival as we flew Business Class we were near the front of the line for immigration. Baggage did not
take too long to arrive. Finding a taxi was not obvious, but a friendly airport employee walked us across the
car park to the taxis - make sure you agree a price in advance. When we departed Abuja, although it was
quiet and there was no one in front, it still took an hour to check-in. Bags had to be x-rayed and PAX go
through a metal detector, bags then manually weighed and manually searched, after which, we could check-
in. Due to a computer crash, boarding cards were manually written - however ground staff later gave out
printed cards at the gate. The business lounge was rubbish but at least the sofas were comfy. At the gate
all passengers and bags were searched again - by very friendly staff.

Abuja international arrivals greets you with a long immigration line. Only one booth is set up to accommodate a
complete flight, with another booth for dignitaries and diplomats. One can stand for over 1 hour in this line while
the immigration clerk scrutinizes your passport and visa. The people are generally nice and polite, the airport is
clean. AC is mediocre. International departure was crowded and not very comfortable, and in most places
extremely hot. Food options are limited. Abuja national terminal is another story. Very hot, limited seating, not so
clean, limited food options and crowded. There are no flight departure screens. In general an unkempt image.

It was better than expected, but can be quite messy sometimes. Currently (April 2011) the road
which connects the airport to town is under maintenance and traffic at peak hours is nothing
less than crazy, so program yourself to go there early. In the passengers lounge there is
absolutely nothing to do but a couple of convenience stores to buy soda and crackers. Toilets
are decent, but with no towels nor soap to wash the hands.

Upon arrival from Amsterdam on KLM, I went to use the bathroom and there was no garbage can
and no toilet paper. The airport was cleaner than I expected. I think it's better than Lagos,
actually. Our luggage failed to arrive with us and we were told to come back in 3 days time to
pick it up! We weren't going to be anywhere near Abuja in 3 days! We were told later by the
airline (after we got back to the US) that they should have delivered it to us. (It was a 6
hour drive one way, by the way.) Leaving was a nightmare. They had no record of our changed
flight days and had no way of checking with our credit card (we were told that's all we would
need to verify our changed dates-a credit card.) We were told to step aside while they helped
other passengers. Then we were sent to one person who told us to go to another person, etc,
etc. It took two hours to straighten out the mess and that was only because my husband had to
beg the woman to let him use her computer so he could check his email which he was sure would
have a confirmation of the change. I will say this particular woman was very professional and
willing to do whatever it took to help us. Boarding passes were hand-written. Upon checking
our baggage, the woman typed in LIM instead of ILM which meant our bags were heading for Lima,
Peru, not Wilmington, North Carolina! This screw-up was revealed to us upon arriving in
Atlanta. Overall, not a good experience with the airport, or maybe it was just KLM/Delta. Who
knows. I was not impressed.

The international terminal is nice and quite well organised but there is nothing much to do
there. The domestic terminal is madness, especially between 4pm and 7pm when many flights
depart for Lagos. Its more like an old bus station than an airport, and I am not sure the
security is that strong (last time I was there the boarding passes were handwritten on small
pieces of photocopied paper)
Abuja Airport review by S Adewale

In Nigerian standards, relatively clean and organized. However, I was
bored out of my mind when waiting for my flight because the shopping and
entertainment possibilities is nil. Overall and compared to Lagos
domestic terminal this airport is paradise on earth.
