Currently, tickets for Brussels Airlines business class flights to West Africa are quite cheap. Departing from Paris, you can travel to Dakar in Senegal for €1,044 with availability until December 2022. Tickets to Accra and Abidjan are also unusually cheap. All itineraries require a change of planes in Brussels both ways.
These tickets are not refundable if you cancel them. To change flight dates, you’d need to pay the fare difference, but at least the rebooking fee is waived.
Worldwide travel restrictions are in place to slow the spread of Covid-19. We strongly recommend gathering detailed information about the travel and quarantine restrictions that apply to your desired origin and destination.
A good start is the International Air Transport Association (IATA) website. It provides current updates on a country’s immigration policies. Even better, the Covid-19 Travel Regulations Map is one of the most useful tools you can find.
