Why Does It Cost So Much To Travel To Nigeria?

[olukojo]

Considering the number of people both Nigerians and visitors that travel to Nigeria all year round, the cost of travel to Nigeria is very high.

It?s not because it?s a far distance, like travelling to Australia.

To me I think the Airlines are taking advantage of people travelling to Nigeria and they are over inflating the air fares.

Well, I think that the price of air line ticket should be a fair reflection of the actual distance travelled and not a preconceived inflated fixed price that people are forced to pay.

The most annoying part of this, the Nigerian Government is not doing anything about this, maybe they still believe like someone once said that air travel is for rich people.  what they forget is, when people spend so much to get to Nigeria, they won't have a lot of money spare, to spend in the country and help the economy.

In the long run, who?s the looser?

I would appreciate a lot of feedback about this, because this affects All
Nigerians, and the growth of tourism in Nigeria
