Lagos to Kaduna is a short domestic flight, but schedules change. Before you pay, check that a flight runs on your date, the airports you will use, and the full price. This guide covers what we could confirm and what you still need to check yourself.
Which airlines fly from Lagos to Kaduna?
Rano Air has the clearest published record on this route. The schedule data we found lists flights from Lagos Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS) to Kaduna Airport (KAD) six days a week, with no Saturday service. The published departure is 08:50 from Lagos, with arrival around 10:20. Flight time is about 1 hour 20 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes, depending on the source. Check Rano Air’s official site for your date.
Air Peace has advertised flights on this route, but we could not confirm bookable dates for late 2026. We also found no confirmed schedule for Azman Air on this route. Check the Air Peace website before you plan around it.
Treat any listing as unconfirmed until the airline’s booking page shows a bookable flight on your exact date.
How much do flights cost?
We could not confirm a current naira fare for this route. One flight price comparison site showed about US$235 to US$411 one way in early November 2026. Prices change often and depend on the date, fare type, and extras.
Compare the total price at checkout. Look for fees, bag charges, seat selection, and meals. The lowest fare on the search page may not be the lowest final price.
Lagos airport: what to plan for
Flights from Lagos leave from Murtala Muhammed International Airport. Check which terminal your airline uses before you leave. Our Lagos domestic terminal guide explains which terminal names mean and how early to arrive, and our MMA1 and MMA2 guide covers the two terminals.
Leave early and allow time for road traffic and check-in. Your airline can confirm its check-in times.
Kaduna airport: what to plan for
Kaduna Airport is your arrival point. Plan how you will leave the airport before you land. Ask your hotel, host, or driver to meet you if you can. Check ground transport options at both ends of your trip.
Our Lagos to Kaduna bus guide covers the road option. It can help if a flight is full or cancelled.
What to do if your flight is cancelled
Nigeria’s NCAA rules give passengers rights when an airline cancels a flight. On a domestic flight, the airline must pay compensation of at least 25% of the ticket price, unless it told you at least 24 hours before departure. The airline may not have to pay if it proves the cancellation came from circumstances it could not avoid.
NCAA guidance also says passengers have a right to reimbursement of the full ticket value. The rules have exceptions and conditions, so read the current NCAA Part 19 rules and the NCAA FAQ before you make a claim.
Start with a written complaint to the airline. If it is not resolved, you can file a complaint with the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA).

Booking with a provider you can reach
Book through the airline or a provider with a support contact you can reach. Third-party sites can show fares and times that differ from the airline’s. Confirm the flight number, time, and terminal with the airline before you travel.
Ground transport on both ends
Your ticket covers the flight, not the road. Plan how you will reach the airport in Lagos, allowing time for traffic and check-in. In Kaduna, plan the ride from the airport to your final stop before you land.
Budget for airport transport at both ends, plus baggage and any meal costs. Ground transport options can change, so check current local information before you travel.
Pre-travel checklist
Check these the day before you fly:
- Flight number and departure time match your confirmation
- Your name matches your valid ID exactly
- Baggage allowance is confirmed
- You have a copy of the booking reference saved offline
- Someone in Kaduna knows your flight number and expected arrival time
