Flights to Ikeja
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Ikeja is served by one airport with scheduled flights. The closest large one is Murtala Muhammed International Airport (LOS), 3 km (2 mi) from the centre, whose 12,794-ft runway is long enough for long-haul wide-body aircraft.
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Murtala Muhammed International Airport | LOS | 3 km (2 mi) | 12,794 ft | 135 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 12,794 ft, LOS can take the largest long-haul aircraft, so direct intercontinental flights are physically possible here. The airport sits at 135 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
