Direct flight Milan Malpensa - Lagos with Neos
Operated by a Boeing 737-8 Max, the flight departs every Wednesday with a weekly frequency to one of the most populated cities in all of Africa and the largest in Nigeria
Neos, an airline part of Alpitour World, continues to expand its international network by introducing a new direct route between Milan Malpensa and Lagos.
The new connection, inaugurated yesterday, October 30, is operated with a Boeing 737-8 Max and provides a weekly frequency every Wednesday. The flight departs Milan Malpensa at 17:45, arriving in Lagos at 23:45 (GMT+1); the return is scheduled for 00:55 the following day, arriving in Italy at 07:00.
With its 25 million inhabitants, Lagos is one of the most populous cities in Africa and the largest in Nigeria, as well as being a destination with considerable tourist potential. This new Neos flight from Milan to Lagos represents a further step in the global expansion of the company, which already serves several African destinations including Dakar, Cape Verde, Egypt, Kenya, Madagascar, Tunisia and Zanzibar, consolidating its presence on the African continent.

The route meets the needs of an important segment for Neos: VFR (Visiting Friends and Relatives) traffic, which is growing thanks to the large Nigerian community residing in Italy, especially in the centre-north. This new route will not only facilitate connections for those who want to visit friends and relatives, but will also contribute to the development of economic and commercial exchanges between Europe and Africa. A target of travelers different from the classic leisure, capable of giving stability to the company's network and supporting the continuity of the route even in less crowded periods.

Currently, Neos' fleet includes 16 aircraft, including the latest generation B737, B737 MAX and B787-9 Dreamliner, with the addition expected by 2025 of three new B737-8 MAXs, for a total of 19 state-of-the-art aircraft.
