Why Fly from Manchester Instead of London?

How to Travel from London to Jos?

Jos is now better connected than ever before. To reach here from the UK, Abuja is your mandatory gateway.

Step 1: The International Leg (London to Abuja)

  • Best Route: Fly from London to Abuja (ABV) via British Airways or Turkish Airlines.
  • Why Abuja? Abuja is the closest international hub to Jos. Connecting via Lagos is not practical as there are no direct commercial flights from Lagos to Jos.

Step 2: The Domestic Leg (Abuja to Jos)

  • The Flight: A very quick 35-40 minute hop from Abuja to Jos.
  • Airlines: ValueJet is currently the most reliable operator on this route. Overland Airways also operates scheduled flights.
  • Game Changer: In the past, people had to drive from Abuja. Now, with ValueJet, you can fly securely and avoid the road entirely.

 Best Airlines for the Main Journey

1. For Heavy Luggage

  • Turkish Airlines: (Via Istanbul). The favorite for Jos residents. The 46kg baggage allowance is perfect if you are bringing goods for family or business.
  • British Airways: (Via London). Arrives in Abuja in the morning. This gives you plenty of time to transfer to the domestic wing for the afternoon flight to Jos.

2. For the Final Leg (Domestic)

  • ValueJet: The new “Hero of the Plateau”. They offer modern aircraft and consistent schedules, making the Abuja-Jos connection seamless.
  • Overland Airways: A veteran on this route, known for safety and serving the business community.

Why Fly to Jos (Safety First)?

  • Avoid the Road: The road journey from Abuja to Jos (via Riyom/Barkin Ladi) has faced security challenges. Flying over these areas takes minutes and is 100% safe.
  • Speed: The flight is barely 40 minutes. Driving can take 3-4 hours depending on checkpoints and traffic.
  • Comfort: Jos has a unique micro-climate (very cold). Landing directly at Heipang (Jos Airport) means you arrive fresh, without the dust and stress of a road trip.
