Ata usiende mbali...Go to Ethiopia Addis to be precise
Its unfair to compare Bole and JKIA, kindly try comparing it with an airport that handles the same capacity of travelers etc, try the lounge at that airport, however i could say the design is a little more spacious, probably the times i passed through it there were not so many people.
Better ventilation, JKIA ni kama prison, probably too squeezed and those shops do not make it any better.
The toilets (i visited once) you need more room for you and your luggage since its not one of those places you are guaranteed to find it where you placed it, the stairs, they could as well charge and make sure they are clean, i cannot imagine having a layover at JKIA.
The person putting JKIA ahead of Charle de Gaulle was paid!! how now? however jungus do not want the movements from one terminal to the other, so CDG can be a bit confusing, missed my flight the first time i landed here.
Amsterdam is my favorite, very good directions, more straight forward, the KLM lounge is one to die for. Also liked the airport in Dublin.
Heathrow ni drama, sijui kama ni kuchoka ama ni nini, from one terminal to another.
Dubai is accomodative, passed through just once...
O.R. Tambo beats JKIA handsdown, so does Durban and Capetown airports, Cairo too, hata ile iko Botswana, i have seen worse than JKIA, for instance the Lusaka airport and the Lilongwe ones, , you actually start feeling unsafe, wonder who allows them to be International airports. Daresalaam just meets the expectations given the people and their 'naomba' culture
Hiyo ya Lagos ni soko, hawkers kwa dirisha ya ndege??
