Star Alliance member Lufthansa will fly you all the way to Nairobi for only €391 if you depart from Brussels in May, August, or September. You could also fly from Helsinki for a slightly higher price. A highlight of this deal is that luggage is included.
Our calendar displays all available dates for trips of up to 28 days. Simply select your preferred point of departure and the dates that suit you best, and we’ll redirect you to Skyscanner’s website. Sadly, Lufthansa charges between €40 and €150 more on its website.
After first flying to Frankfurt, either with Lufthansa or Brussels Airlines, you would board a Lufthansa Airbus A330 for your 8-hour flight to Nairobi.
Search & Book
The fare rules merely state a minimum stay requirement of 6 days or one Sunday. As you can see in our calendar that is based on Google Flights, these prices can be found in May, August, and September 2023. Sadly, Lufthansa charges a much higher price on its website, so you’ll have to search on Skyscanner.

- 2,930 Miles on ANA Mileage Club
- 2,440 Award Miles + 488 PQP on United MileagePlus
