For quite a number of Nigerian travellers going to other destinations today, the journey does not end at arriving at the airport. In fact, a new one begins there.
There is a list of important things a traveler might need to take care of once they arrive at their destination. They likely need to pay for transport, check directions to their accommodation address, and keep in contact with people back home.

As global travel becomes more digital, these challenges are drawing attention from fintech platforms trying to bridge the gap.
