New York to Abuja
When to book this route
December and the American summer holidays are the busiest times to fly into Abuja, when families travel home. Fares ease considerably in February and again through the rainy season from May onward. Connections fill earlier than seats do, so ten to twelve weeks ahead is worth it for the routing as much as the price.
