Where you can fly in Canada
Airlines flying Nigeria to Canada
Canada is a major destination for Nigerian students and families relocating, which often means multiple tickets, heavy baggage and travel timed around a study permit. TBILS handles those bookings end to end and offers installment payment so a family trip does not have to be paid for in one go.
When to book, and when to fly
Summer and the December holidays are the most expensive periods. Winter fares from January to March are markedly lower, though Canadian winters are severe — pack accordingly. Student traffic lifts demand sharply in August and early September.
Booking tip
On long-haul routes the fare usually rises as seats sell, so securing a ticket early tends to beat waiting for a deal. TBILS’ installment plan lets you lock in an early fare without paying the full amount upfront.
Visa requirements for Nigerian passport holders
Nigerian passport holders need a Canadian visitor visa, study permit or work permit depending on the purpose of travel, and biometrics are required. Processing times vary considerably by category, so apply early. TBILS can assist with the application and supporting documents.
Entry requirements change. Always confirm the current rules with the relevant embassy or consulate before you travel.
Departing from your city
Long-haul flights to Canada depart from Nigeria’s international gateways. If you are starting somewhere else, TBILS books the domestic connection and the international leg together on one itinerary.
