Frequently asked questions

Which airlines fly to Rwanda?
With 15 airlines ready to help you get away to Rwanda, finding an ideal flight will be a breeze. Book your airfare with one of these major carriers that operate services to Kigali Intl. Airport (KGL):

  • RwandAir - 182 flights to Rwanda per month
  • Ethiopian Airlines - 35 flights to Rwanda per month
  • Auric Air - 17 flights to Rwanda per month

What is the best airport to fly to in Rwanda?
Jet into Kigali Intl. Airport (KGL), the primary gateway to Rwanda. Booking your flight to this region doesn't get much easier.
How much is a flight to Rwanda?
Round-trip flights to Rwanda this last week fluctuated from $460 to $1,660. If you were flying one-way out of Nairobi (NBO), you could have nabbed ticket prices from just $380.
How to book the cheapest flight to Rwanda?
With Orbitz, you'll find some of the most impressive flight deals around from a wide range of airlines. But if you'd love to boost your prospects of scoring cheap flights to Rwanda, here are some suggestions to bear in mind:

  • Depending on where you're departing from, choose the 'Nearby airports' function (located under the departure and arrival form fields). Occasionally, other departure points offer more competitive fares.
  • If your travel plans aren't etched in stone, click on the 'Show flexible dates' link to see the flight deals for a variety of departure dates. If you find a better fare, book it.
  • To refine your results, click on 'Show options.' You can search based on airlines, seating class, and nonstop and refundable flights. You can also select your preferred flight times under 'Sort & Filter' to the left.
  • Once you've worked out your travel dates, reserve your flight. Ticket prices generally get more expensive as the departure date nears.
  • Bundle your hotels, flights and car rentals into a cost-effective package deal. Save your dollars for things you're really excited about, like discovering every corner of Rwanda.
  • Flying during busier seasons means steep airfares. Try to travel outside of popular periods, such as Thanksgiving, New Year's Eve and Easter.

What is the best time to book a flight to Rwanda?
Generally speaking, January is the best month to purchase your airfare. This is closely followed by February and August. Bear this in mind while you look for a cheap flight to Rwanda.
What day of the week is the cheapest to book a flight to Rwanda?
To land an incredible flight deal, make a booking on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Saturday. These are typically the cheapest days to book tickets to Rwanda.
What is the cheapest day of the week to fly to Rwanda?
Everyone loves saving money, so we recommend flying out earlier in the week to nab cheap flights to Rwanda. Orbitz data from 2020 shows you can score the best deals on flights leaving on Mondays. Tuesdays are the next cheapest day, while Saturdays are likely to cost a bundle. Many people tend to travel at the end of the week, so leave those Saturdays for catching up with pals.
What is the cheapest month to fly to Rwanda?
If you have some wiggle room with your travel plans, consider jetting off during August. Orbitz data shows that this is generally the best month to take off if you're after cheap flights to Rwanda. As you would expect, airfares increase in June and flights sell out quickly.
Which airlines allow free cancellation?
Orbitz makes it easy to find carriers offering fare flexibility. Simply choose "Filter by flexible change policies" when searching for your flights and bingo! You'll see options that include free cancellation within 24 hours of booking, no change fees and of course, the best price.
What do I need for the flight to Rwanda?
It's good to be prepared for anything when traveling. Remember the following pointers for a smooth, stress-free flight:

  • Nothing is more important than having your travel documents. Which to bring and how many depend on whether you're flying international or domestic. It's best to check with your airline. In both cases, you'll need to show some kind of government-issued ID.
  • Take a good book or a laptop filled with your favorite movies — it'll help to while away time on your journey to Rwanda. Or if you'd rather get some sleep, an eye mask will block out those bright cabin lights.
  • Long-haul flights can get seriously cold, especially if you're flying throughout the night. If you don't want to stay awake shivering for the length of your journey, bring your favorite hoodie and some thick socks.

How many direct flights are there to Rwanda?
Your next thrilling adventure is one easy plane ride away, with 54 direct services to Rwanda each month. Search for your flight with Orbitz and pick up a fantastic deal with RwandAir, Ethiopian Airlines or Kenya Airways. Other well-known carriers that offer nonstop services include Turkish Airlines, Auric Air and KLM.
How do I get cheap first-class/business deals to Rwanda?
There are ways of booking first or business-class fares to Rwanda that won't burn a hole through your budget. Pick up a seat at the front of the plane for less with these great tips:

  • Being flexible isn't just for the gym. Have some room to move around your travel dates so you can pick up cheaper airfares when a sale pops up.
  • Find a budget airline that has seats in business class. They often come with more space and a glass of bubbly — but without the high price.
  • Make the most of your airline's loyalty program and use points to upgrade your seat. Alternatively, you can try bidding for an upgrade in an online auction.

What is the best time to go to Rwanda?
While Rwanda is a fantastic destination to visit at any time, the most popular months are April, July and August. Like the rest of the Southern Hemisphere, the summer season begins December 1 here. During this time, temperatures usually range between 60 ºF at night and 80 ºF during the day.
Travel tips for Rwanda

  • The possibilities for fun in Rwanda are never-ending — and Market is just one place you'll find it. Pick up a car rental, work out how to reach this fabulous attraction and then get on the road!
  • If you enjoy the buzz and excitement of major cities, kick off your adventure in Kigali. This vibrant destination is the first stop for many visitors to the area.
