Top Airtel Data Plans in Nigeria 2016

To ensure that this article is easy to navigate, I would be categorizing the subscriptions based on their validity periods.

Airtel Daily Data Plans
Prior to now, the norm is this category of data plans from Nigerian Mobile internet providers had been 10MB for ₦100, which honestly was pure BS! However, this is not the case with the following Airtel daily Internet bundles.

30MB for ₦100
Surprised?

Don’t be. You should be happy instead.

After giving us dog sh*t for years, Airtel has finally deemed it fit for us to taste ‘em bones.

I don’t think you get that analogy.

Simply put, Airtel has bumped up the data allocated to the daily ₦100 plan all the way from 10 MB to 30 glorious MB!

This plan is valid only for 24hours and the subscription code is highlighted below.

50MB for ₦300
Although priced at ₦200 on their official web page, this plan will actually cost you ₦300.

Valid for 3 days, you can surf the internet with the 50MB allocated to you for ₦300. However, I advise you consider the next bundle (plan 3) before subscribing to this;

5-Star Pack 25MB (5MB daily) for ₦100
Although the data allocated to this bundle compared to the first bundle listed is small, I find this one particularly interesting.

For ₦100, you’d get 5MB every day for 5days to surf the internet.

This could particularly be useful for those folks (mostly old folks) who just go online to read “the punch” and check “who is doing birthday on Facebook today”.

Airtel Weekly Data Plans
Though they have two weekly data plans, only one is worth mentioning.

750MB for ₦500
For just 500 Naira, you can surf the internet for 2 good weeks with 750MB backing you thanks to Airtel’s “Easy” internet bundle. MTN has a similar data plan, but Airtel’s is better because of the 2 weeks validity.

Airtel Monthly Data Plans
Yes! We’re are down to the holy grail of internet subscriptions for Airtel.

Plans in this category are one of the best in Nigeria relative to what other Mobile Internet providers offer. Although most of them are Airtel Android data plans, they’ll work fine on any device.

1.5GB for ₦1000
Starting with the “cream of the crop”, Airtel offers you 1.5GB worth of data for ₦1,000. This plan is their Android 1.0 plan but as stated on their website, this plan works for all devices. I have tested it, and it truly works and unlike their blackberry plans, the data consumption rate is reasonable.

What I mean is, you get an actual GB of data even when not on Android, and the plan is valid for one month.

3.5GB for ₦2000
Now that’s what I’m talking about!

For just ₦2000, you’d get more than double the amount of the data allocated to the cash equivalent of the previous plan which is also valid for 30 days.

This plan is perfect for the everyday internet user who sometimes stream videos and download clips
