These are the issues and how they affect everyday people travelling into and from Africa's largest country.

Roundtrip (Accra to NYC) - $1,666 or ₦966k.

Roundtrip (Lagos to Accra) - ₦200k

Hotel, food, tours if you spend 2 or 3 nights in Accra - ₦300k

Total = ₦1.47m

That's not up to the cost of a ticket from Lagos to NYC at $3,954 = ₦2.29m

You still have almost ₦1m left.
Shocker.

The business class flight from Accra to New York (round trip) is cheaper than the economy flight from Lagos to New York (round trip) on the same dates. On Delta.

There's a $1,000 difference that could pay for your Lagos - Accra flight and still have lots of change.

1. When we saw Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya), we were speechless. It was the most breathtaking thing we had ever seen  in Africa — by a long stretch. The first way to explore the falls is with a 10 minute flight over the gorgeous carpet of thundering smoke.

Flight of Angels 👇
2. Here's some more footage of @AjalaNene on the Flight of Angels, exploring the falls by helicopter. She cried 🥰
