International Flight Routing

Your private, custom-tailored itinerary is based upon a Delta / KLM Airlines arrival into Kilimanjaro International Airport (JRO). Kilimanjaro, which is next to the small town of Arusha, is the launching point for all Tanzania safaris. The daily Delta / KLM Airlines flight from the U.S. to Kilimanjaro (via Amsterdam) is the most convenient and efficient flight routing available. The flight routing consists of two segments. The first segment is from your departure city in the U.S. direct to Amsterdam. The second segment is from Amsterdam non-stop to Kilimanjaro.

General Discussion

If a direct Kilimanjaro arrival on Delta / KLM Airlines is not possible, there are several good alternatives available on British Airways, Turkish Airlines, Swiss Air, South African Airways, Qatar Airways and Emirates Airlines. Each of these airlines has arrivals into Nairobi, Kenya and/or Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Besides our main Africa Dream Safaris office in Arusha, we have affiliate offices in both Nairobi and Dar es Salaam to facilitate transfers, overnight layovers and connecting flights to Kilimanjaro to begin your safari. Starting in 2013, Turkish Airlines and Qatar Airways now offer non-stop flights on a regular basis from Istanbul and Doha to Kilimanjaro.

Since we are a ground operator in Tanzania, we do not book international flights but we can certainly facilitate the transaction for you. If you'd like some assistance with booking your flights, we can connect you with our airline booking agent. She has helped many of our clients with airline bookings to Tanzania in the past, and she is familiar with all the appropriate routings (including adding layovers in Amsterdam or other European cities). Otherwise, international flights can easily be booked directly on sites such as delta.com or klm.com.
