THE SHORT ANSWER
How do I request cargo charter options for Lagos, Lekki, Apapa and Tin Can Island?
Send RentJet the cargo description, packed weight and dimensions, collection point, final destination and deadline for Lagos, Lekki, Apapa and Tin Can Island. We review the sourcing brief with independent operators; suitable airports, cargo acceptance, onward transport, availability and terms need separate confirmation.
Match the airport plan to the actual Lagos destination.
Apapa and Tin Can Island are distinct port destinations, and Lekki is a different delivery area. “Lagos” alone is not enough to plan the ground movement. Identify the receiving warehouse, port terminal or factory area at the outset.
The air leg does not remove the need for cargo release, a suitable vehicle, a receiver and a road handover. Ask who is responsible between the airport and your final destination. Do not build the deadline around an assumed cross-city transfer time.
Keep manufacturing shipments specific.
For a replacement drive, control unit or production component, include its part description and the dimensions of the finished crate. Confirm whether the piece can be stacked or tilted and whether lifting points are marked.
For an Ikeja, Ota or other industrial-area delivery, separate the ready-at-supplier time from the required-at-plant time. If engineers are waiting, tell us the installation window without sharing confidential production details.
Compare a charter against a suitable scheduled service.
A dedicated aircraft may be unnecessary for a small component if an acceptable scheduled freight option exists. Compare the complete delivery plan, cargo acceptance and deadline before choosing.
Airport and aircraft suitability, positioning, handling and any permit requirements determine the actual charter proposal. No cargo tariff or guaranteed Lagos departure is published here.

Frequently asked questions
Does sending an enquiry book a cargo aircraft?
No. It starts a sourcing discussion. The operator must accept the cargo and confirm aircraft suitability, permissions, availability, price and terms before a booking can be agreed.
Is customs clearance included?
Do not assume it is. The proposal must identify who arranges export and import clearance, handling, storage and onward delivery, and which charges are included.
Does this page confirm a RentJet office or aircraft in Nigeria?
No. It describes an enquiry area. RentJet does not claim an owned aircraft, local office or confirmed supplier presence here; each sourcing request needs assessment.

This is an enquiry, not a confirmed flight or delivery guarantee. Independent operators confirm aircraft, cargo acceptance, permissions, availability, price and terms. Customs, packing, insurance and onward transport require clearly agreed responsibilities.
