How To Book A Flight Online In Kenya

In this article Keweb. co tries to answer the question by publishing the ways one can book a flight online in Kenya

Below are the most helpful ways to book a flight online in Kenya

Kenya’s main airport is Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO), located 15km/9 mi southeast of Nairobi. Kenya’s second international airport is Moi International Airport (MBA), located 9km/6 mi west of Mombasa, but aside from flights to Zanzibar, this is primarily used for domestic and charter flights.

From Nairobi or Mombasa, you can fly or drive between reserves, or opt to do a bit of both. Most (but not all) domestic flights out of Nairobi depart from Wilson Airport (WIL), 6km/4 mi south of Nairobi.

Whichever mode you choose for travel, in most cases the local tour operator will arrange pickup at the airport and all further transportation as part of the safari package.
