Summer 2024 Trip to Naija: Outbound Day 1 - Miami to Lagos Pt 2

Hello folks, this is the second part of this trip as we laid over for 3hrs 35mins at Frankfurt airport. We went through passport control πŸ›‚ and then proceed through security and made our way to our next gate for our flight to Lagos πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬. I hope you enjoy this trip.

Final Flight: Lufthansa Airlines Flight 568 - πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ Frankfurt to Lagos πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬
Aircraft: Airbus A330-300
Origin: Flughafen Frankfurt Am Main Airport (EDDF)
Destination: Murtala Muhammed Int’l Airport (DNMM)
Flight Time: 6hrs 30mins
Server: Expert


As mentioned earlier that we went through passport control πŸ›‚ and security, we made our way to Gate B25 FRA airport and here is our aircraft that took us to Lagos πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬. Arriving at this gate, there were a bunch of Nigerians and very few Germans on this flight. So welcome aboard Lufthansa Flight 568 heading to Lagos πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ here we go.


After pushback from Gate B25 and the safety video was played, we taxied our way to RWY 7C for takeoff from FRA airport


Here we go, upon preparation for takeoff as we entered and lined up RWY 7C before our takeoff roll


And off we go, we lifted off RWY 7C from FRA airport, and we are on our way to Naija πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬. Bye bye Frankfurt πŸ‘‹πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ


After we took off, we banked to our right to head south, leaving Germany πŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ, and leaving Europe going into Africa


Once we leveled off at FL360, flying over the Balearic Sea 🌊, the flight attendants started serving us Lufthansa crackers like it was on the last flight. Then the main meal πŸ₯˜ was served which was either pasta 🍝 or chicken and rice πŸšπŸ—, which was the same meal as the last flight. But this time, me, Aunty Ini, Grandma, and Uncle Offiong chose chicken and rice πŸ—πŸš while I chose Sprite πŸ₯€ once again, Aunty chose this time water πŸ’§, Grandma chose coffee β˜•οΈ this time, and Uncle chose water πŸ’§this time. Thus, all of us was given a bottle of water along with a garden salad πŸ₯— with dressing, Pretzel Bread πŸ₯¨πŸž roll with cheese πŸ§€ and butter 🧈, and a strawberry jello cake 🍰 for dessert. While flying over Algeria πŸ‡©πŸ‡Ώ, the flight attendants collected trash πŸ—‘οΈ. After that, I chewed on gum for the remainder of the flight. Then I put on my AirPods 🎧 and listened to some Naija music 🎢 πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ before we began our descent. Then I also took a short nap πŸ’€ before we began our descent. Perhaps, all of us did take a nap before our descent.


And here we go as we began our descent once we reached the Nigerian πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ airspace before our preparation for landing into LOS airport, aiming for RWY 18R


And here we are, on short final RWY 18R LOS airport before touch down.


And clap for applause πŸ‘ as we just landed in Lagos πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ and the one of the Nigerian πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ passenger chanted β€œIN THE NAME OF JESUS, WELCOME TO LAGOS πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬. ALLELUIA, AMEN πŸ™β€. After exiting the runway, we taxied to Gate D41 for our arrival. Dude, I really did enjoy that chant upon us landing in Lagos. That was awesome. I don’t have a reason why, but I just enjoyed that chant.


And here we are at Gate D41 LOS airport upon arrival. Welcome to Lagos Naija πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ folks. We have made it to Nigeria πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ safely and sound. So now, it’s time for us to grab our belongings and exit the aircraft using the steps, and walk on the tarmac to enter the airport, proceeding to the passport control πŸ›‚ before Grandma called one of the taxi πŸš– driver named Bassey to take us to Lagos Ikeja Marriot Hotel 🏨 for one night before heading off to Uyo πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬ on Ibom Air the next morning.

And that completes our trip from πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ Miami to Lagos πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬. I hope you enjoyed this trip. Stay tuned for our Ibom Air flight to Uyo πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬, our home city or as I can say, our hometown in Akwa Ibom State πŸ‡³πŸ‡¬. So stay safe and have a blessed day. See ya in the skies.
