Where are the most popular flight destinations in Africa?

Popular flight destinations in Africa include Egypt, Morocco, South Africa, Tunisia and Algeria.
  • What is the best way to travel around Africa?

    When you book flights to Africa your next step is to plan how to get around the area. Safari tours are a safe and practical way to see the animals and the landscape. Perhaps the cheapest way to get around after you book your Africa airfare is by bus. There are easily accessible bus terminals throughout Africa, but it takes a bit more planning for your day. Baz Bus is a service that takes travelers on popular routes and even can include full safari tours. A car hire allows you to drive the African Coast, and fees are reasonable. Another cheap option is a minivan. They only leave when they are full, so don’t expect comfort.

  • What are some things to do in Kenya?

    Before flying to Africa, it helps to know what things to do when you arrive. The Masai Mara National Reserve and Amboseli National Park are worth spending time at to see the landscape and animals. Kenya’s National Museum will give you an amazing history lesson about the area. The Elephant Research Camp is not to be missed; casual visits are allowed and there are tours of the Camp, too. Africa flight deals will take you to Mzima Springs, a vast, green spring with walking trails along the shore. After you compare flights to Africa, be sure to see all of these attractions.

  • How long is the flight to Africa?

    For flights to Africa, from Montreal to Cairo the average flight time is 16h 50min. The time from Quebec to Cairo is close to 20h 15min. Toronto to Cairo averages a 26h 15min flight. To reach other countries in Africa, a connecting flight in Cairo is necessary. The best month to fly to Africa is in April, but there are cheap flights to Africa throughout the year. If you book your trip 61 days in advance, you will save additional fees on your ticket. Try planning your flight on a Monday for the best prices and the least crowds for your flight. The most ideal time to fly is around noon.

  • What do I need to do before my flight to Kenya?

    When you book flights to Africa, your next step is to research what you can do to prepare for your trip. It’s a good idea to call your credit card company to notify them that you’ll be out of the country. Getting cheap flights to Africa also requires a valid passport and driver’s license so always carry them. Make sure you check for travel visa requirements and exchanging currency procedures, too. After booking flights to Africa, spend some time researching where you will be exploring so you know the area better. It’s also convenient to book travel tours like safaris ahead of time.
