  • Kenya Airways - 10 flights to Malawi per month

How much is a flight to Malawi?
Plenty of huge deals were going begging this week, with round-trip flights to Malawi fluctuating from $687 to $1,619. But it was passengers departing from Johannesburg (JNB) who scored the best bargains. One-way fares to Malawi fell to a low $339.
How to book the cheapest flight to Malawi?
With Orbitz, you'll uncover some of the most exciting flight deals around from a wide range of airlines. But if you'd love to increase your likelihood of landing cheap flights to Malawi, here are some suggestions we think will help:

  • Depending on your place of departure, select the 'Nearby airports' function (located under the departure and arrival form fields). In certain cases, other departure points will have more competitive fares.
  • If you're flexible with your travel itinerary, click on the 'Show flexible dates' link. It'll display the flight deals for the days before and after your selected departure. Fares often vary depending on what day of the week it is.
  • To optimize your results, hit 'Show options.' You can search based on seating class, airlines, nonstop flights and refundable flights. You can also choose the time of day you'd like to fly under 'Sort & Filter' to the left.
  • If you've worked out your travel dates, don't delay booking. Fares generally climb as the departure date nears.
  • Combine your hotels, flights and car rental into one convenient package deal. Save your dollars for things you're really excited about, like exploring Malawi.
  • If practical, avoid traveling in high seasons. Airfares surge during summer, school breaks and other vacation periods like Thanksgiving and Christmas.

Enter your departure and arrival points, then choose "Filter by flexible change policies." We'll show you all the options that include free cancellation within 24 hours of booking and no change fees.
What do I need for the flight to Malawi?
It's good to be prepared for anything when going on a trip. Remember the following for a smooth journey:

  • You'll need identification such as your passport. To avoid confusion during check-in, make sure you book your flights under the same name as your government-issued ID. It's smart to have digital copies of important documents too, just to be safe!
  • Bring some extra entertainment for your long trip to Malawi. If you're tired of watching movies, give your eyes a break from all that screen time and get stuck into a book.
  • Cabin temperatures are often cold enough to give you goose pimples. Carry a hoodie even if you're traveling during the height of Malawi summer.

  • Flexibility is important. By being open to different travel dates, you'll have better odds of finding a deal on your airfares.
  • Many budget airlines have quality business or premium-class seating without the hefty fees.
  • Bid for an upgrade. Some carriers hold online auctions that let you put down a price for a seat at the front of the plane. You can also try upgrading with points earned through a flight loyalty scheme.
