Traditional Media & Advertising
Airport Advertising
Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt airport placements.
The short answer
Airport advertising covers static and digital panels, baggage claim conveyor wraps, walkway and bridge signage, lounge sponsorships and outdoor placements at Nigeria's major airports. Clickate plans and buys across MMIA Lagos, NAIA Abuja, PHIA Port Harcourt and the secondary international and domestic terminals.
Airport advertising and the lounge sponsorship play
Beyond panels and digital screens, lounge sponsorships are the most efficient airport play for B2B brands. Branded coffee in the business class lounge of Murtala Muhammed; wi-fi sponsored by a fintech across NAIA's premium lounges; a sponsored newspaper distribution programme in domestic terminals. These integrations cost less than the headline panel placements and concentrate brand exposure on the exact decision-makers most B2B sellers want to reach. We negotiate these deals directly with airport authorities and the lounge operators they license.

MMIA, NAIA and the regional terminals
Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos handles more passenger volume than any other Nigerian airport, but the audience composition is more mixed than headline numbers suggest - international business travel concentrates in the morning and evening peaks; midday traffic is leisure-heavy. Nnamdi Azikiwe in Abuja skews more consistently to government, public-sector and corporate decision-makers across the day. Port Harcourt is dominated by oil and gas executives. Each airport rewards different audience strategies and supports different inventory pricing. We tailor plans to the airport-by-airport audience rather than treating the network as a single buy.
Lounge sponsorship economics
Branded lounge sponsorships - wi-fi, coffee, magazines, charging stations - typically cost a fraction of equivalent panel inventory but deliver high-density exposure to exactly the executive audience B2B brands want. We negotiate these arrangements directly with lounge operators (which are sometimes the airline, sometimes a third-party lounge company). The deals require longer lead times than panel buys but compound in ways panels cannot.

Domestic terminal traffic in Lagos and Abuja carries audience composition that B2C brands sometimes overlook - the daily commuter business traveller cohort plus family travel patterns differ meaningfully from the international terminal audience. For consumer brands targeting the affluent Nigerian traveller, domestic terminal inventory often outperforms international on cost per relevant impression because the international audience includes meaningful in-transit foreigners not in the buyer pool.
Methodology
How we actually do it
-
Flow over footfall
Airport footfall numbers aggregate everyone walking through. Flow-by-zone (arrivals corridor, business-class lounge, gate area) matters more for audience match.
-
Baggage claim dominance
The baggage claim window holds attention longer than any other airport touchpoint. Strong baggage claim placement frequently outperforms multiple smaller panels across the terminal.
-
Lounge sponsorships build B2B
Business and first-class lounges concentrate decision-makers tightly. Sponsorship of branded coffee, wi-fi, or seating within these lounges builds B2B brand association nothing else matches.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do you own any billboards or radio inventory?
No - and this is deliberate. We hold partner rate cards across LASAA-registered media owners and Nigerian radio stations, buy at partner rates, and earn margin transparently on planning, buying and creative. We're not forced to push inventory that doesn't fit.
How do you handle LASAA permits in Lagos?
We handle LASAA permits and state-agency compliance end to end. Permit fees are itemised separately on your campaign quote - never bundled invisibly.
Can I see proof my billboard actually ran?
Yes - monthly photographic, dated reports on every face you book. Mounted reports include print quality and condition checks after Lagos rainy season.
