  "connection_tips": "Connecting through Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS) in Lagos requires significant logistical preparation due to the physical separation of its international and domestic terminals. If your connection involves moving from an international arrival to a domestic flight\u2014such as arriving on Delta and connecting to Ibom Air\u2014you must clear immigration, collect all checked baggage, pass through customs, and take a taxi or pre-arranged shuttle to the appropriate domestic terminal to re-check your bags. A valid Yellow Fever vaccination certificate is mandatory and will be inspected. Be alert for 'routine security exercises' conducted by the Nigerian Air Force base adjacent to the airport, which can occasionally cause temporary closures of the main airport access road.\n\nThe airport consists of the International Terminal (which includes the new T2 and older T1) and two domestic terminals (MMA2 and GAT) located approximately two kilometers apart. Walking between terminal precincts is not recommended due to heat, lack of sidewalks, and security concerns. Ground transportation to central Lagos (Victoria Island or Ikoyi) is best handled via official 'Airport Taxi' ranks or ride-sharing apps like Uber and Bolt, though pickup points for apps are typically located in the multi-story car park rather than the arrivals curb. Helpful amenities include free but sometimes slow Wi-Fi and currency exchange bureaus in the arrivals hall. Crucially, these terminals are not connected airside. A minimum connection time of at least four hours is strongly advised for international-to-domestic transfers to account for immigration processing and Lagos's unpredictable traffic.\n\nMost international travelers require a visa or eVisa to enter Nigeria; it is highly recommended to complete the 'Nigeria Digital Landing Card' online 72 hours before arrival. Fares are negotiable, typically ranging from \u20a615,000 to \u20a625,000. Arriving at the airport three hours before international departures is essential due to multiple security screening layers.",

  "terminal_info": "Murtala Muhammed International Airport operates with separate terminal buildings requiring ground transfers for connections, serving as Nigeria's primary international gateway and busiest airport. The main international terminal handles flights throughout Africa, Europe, North America, and Asia, featuring comprehensive check-in facilities with various international carriers, security screening with enhanced procedures reflecting regional security requirements, immigration processing with separate counters for Nigerian citizens, ECOWAS nationals, and foreign visitors requiring visas with yellow fever vaccination verification mandatory for many travelers.\n\nThe departure areas include duty-free shopping featuring Nigerian products including traditional textiles, wood carvings, and local crafts, along with international brands and electronics, plus dining options showcasing Nigerian cuisine including jollof rice, suya, and plantain alongside international restaurants and fast food. The domestic terminal MM2 serves flights throughout Nigeria including Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, and Kano, featuring streamlined domestic processing, security screening designed for domestic travel requirements, and basic amenities including local food courts and shops.\n\nConnection passengers typically must exit and re-enter through security and immigration, requiring collection of checked baggage and re-check-in, making transfers complex and time-consuming. Both terminals feature essential amenities including medical facilities, currency exchange for Nigerian naira, prayer rooms, children's areas, and ground transportation coordination including official taxi services from designated ranks, ride-sharing options, and bus services to various Lagos districts, with enhanced security measures throughout the airport complex and lengthy arrival procedures including health screenings and customs processing that require patience and proper documentation including yellow fever certificates for international travelers.",
