mostyg:
I arrived Frankfurt Germany Tuesday morning and got to kiel later in the afternoon by train. Thanks to guys in Kiel for receiving me and providing accomodation.
I flew Ethiopia airline to Frankfurt and connected Kiel by train with a train ticket already paid for through airline ticket booking. Frankfurt to Kiel cost me around #2,000 ( same for anywhere in Germany).

If you are coming to Germany and you are on a low bugdet like myself, you may want to book your arrival to QYG ( German rail and fly). 72 hours to your departure, you would be able to generate your online train ticket at DB website using your confirmed airline ticket number. This train ticket will take you to ANYWHERE in Germany from your arrival airport. It is valid till second day after your arrival. Check your airline booking itenary to know your final arrival airport in Germany.

Most airline agents in Nigeria do not know about this. Ethiopian airline staff at VI told me it is not possible.
I wrote and got a mail from Ethiopia airline frankfurt office who confirmed its possiblity.

I saved like #100k with this plan through Ethiopian airline.

Other airlines have the QYG,such as air maroc, etihad etc but Ethiopia seems the cheapest.

If you have much luggages. Please make sure your bags have tyres. It would help a lot. Also be prepared to pay €1 for trolley at Frankfurt airport in case you are landing here.

A copy of your admission letter should be in your hand luggage. You may have to show the immigration guys at point of entry.

Hope this helps someone.

Chiznonso:
I emailed my Db confirmation letter to Embassy on Monday 2.30 pm, when do U think i should get A.M mail? I am waiting eagerly for it, I actually did my visa interview in May 2016

@Chinoso, I also opened my DB account around MAY, and the required blocked amount is 8040. I hope I can get DB confirmation when the required 8040 is paid. I have already done the transfer and simply waiting for confirmation. Pls respond

@UncleJudax...pls provide information about funding details...like bank used, rate etc...

I did my visa interview on the 5th of July, its over a month now and am yet to get any message from the embassy. I just cant proceed and fund my account and would love a message from embassy requesting me to. Pls will the embassy ever request me to fund the account?
