Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips up to 28 days. It will forward you to KLM with your preselected flight dates.

The longer flights are operated by Air France’s Boeing 787 Dreamliners, which have 21 premium economy seats in a 2-3-2 configuration. The seats recline quite well and they have a shell, so it doesn’t bother the person sitting behind you. Some flights have a quick stopover on the outbound journey in Zanzibar.

On the short flight, you will be in economy class. You can fly either the Airbus A320 family with a 3-3 configuration or the brand new Bombardier Airbus A220 with a 2-3 configuration.

Search & Book

The fare will expire on January 15, 2023 and you can travel until March 2023. There is good availability, especially in March 2023. You need to stay at least six nights or spend a Saturday night in Nairobi. However, a 3 months maximum stay also applies.

You have two good ways of searching for flights: our availability calendar only shows flights with no overnight layover, but does not show a few dates which have a Zanzibar layover. It will direct you to KLM’s website where you can book your flight safely. Alternatively, you can also use KLM’s best price calendar, but it may show you dates with overnight transfers. Google Flights does not show all dates. OTAs will not be cheaper than the airline.
