Q : What should I consider when booking airline flights?

A : The cost of international airfare is not included in the tour package pricing. You will need to make these arrangements yourself, or we can assist you. We have found that although there are many airline travel sites to book your flight, you will find the best pricing and service by booking directly through the carrier.

If your journey begins in Tanzania, the most convenient and efficient point of entry is via the Kilimanjaro Airport (JRO) in Arusha, Tanzania. The major airline serving Kilimanjaro is KLM, a codeshare partner of Northwest Airline (NWA) and Delta.

If your journey begins in Kenya, the most convenient and efficient point of entry is Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta Airport (NBO). Major airlines serving Jomo Kenyatta are KLM (Delta/Northwest) and British Airways (BA). Flights can easily be booked directly at www.klm.com,  www.delta.com, or www.britishairways.com.

For planning purposes, you need to arrive no later than the day prior to start of your ground tour. See Tour Itineraries for more information. You may wish to add a 2nd night in the area at the beginning of your trip to recuperate from the flight and before beginning your safari.

If you’re travelling from the USA, the flights typically consist of two segments including a layover in Amsterdam. Airlines may have significant layovers (2 – 6 hours or more) in the Amsterdam airport before the connecting flight. Accordingly, you may wish to consider this great little hotel, Yotel Hotel inside the Amsterdam airport (no clearing immigration or security) that you can book by the hour or overnight. Flight time from the east coast to Amsterdam is about 7 hours while it is longer from the west coast. Flight time from Amsterdam to Kilimanjaro or Nairobi is about 8 hours. The return flight times are a little longer.

Upon arrival, we will greet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel for dinner and overnight stay.

Flights returning back to the USA from all airports depart late at night. As part of the tour package we include a day room at a hotel near the airport to shower and relax before your departing flight. You will be transferred to the airport for your departure.
