Clear & honest
How booking works
Search & compare
Compare fares, times and airlines for your trip. Try flexible dates for the best value.
Book with the airline or partner
You complete the booking with the airline or a licensed travel partner. Their fare, rules and payment apply — shown before you pay.
Manage with the airline
Check-in, seats, changes, refunds and baggage are handled directly by your airline after booking.
Avoid surprises
Before you book — read this
The headline fare rarely tells the whole story. A few checks save money and stress later.
Watch the fare family & baggage
The cheapest fare is often a “basic” or “light” fare that may exclude checked baggage, seat selection or any changes. Before you pay, check:
- How much checked and cabin baggage is included
- Whether seat selection and changes cost extra
- The total price with the bags you actually need
Changes, cancellations & refunds
These are set by your airline and the fare you choose — not by JKIA.co.ke. Read the change and refund rules before booking, and after booking, manage everything with the airline via our airline contacts directory.
Check entry rules early
Flying into Nairobi usually needs a Kenya eTA (unless exempt), and some journeys need yellow-fever proof. Sort these before you travel, not at the airport.
Connections & terminals
On separate tickets you self-transfer and re-check bags — allow time. See connecting flights and confirm your terminal, which is changing during the airport upgrade.

Questions
Booking flights for JKIA — FAQ
Can I book flights to Nairobi on JKIA.co.ke?
You can search and compare flights to and from Nairobi here, then complete the booking with the airline or a licensed travel partner. JKIA.co.ke helps you find the flight; the airline or partner sells and operates it, and their fare and terms apply.
Is JKIA.co.ke an airline?
No. JKIA.co.ke is an independent passenger information and booking website, not an airline, and it does not operate flights. We help you compare options and book through airlines and licensed partners.
Where can I fly non-stop from JKIA?
Nairobi has non-stop routes across Africa, the Middle East, Europe, Asia and to New York, on Kenya Airways and many international carriers. See our destinations-from-JKIA guide for the routes and airlines, then search your dates.
Why is the cheapest fare sometimes a bad deal?
The lowest “basic” or “light” fares often exclude checked baggage, seat selection and any changes, so once you add what you need the total can be higher than a mid fare. Always compare the full price with your bags included, and check the change and refund rules before booking.
What baggage is included in my fare?
That depends entirely on your airline and fare family and is shown during booking and on the airline’s site. Check your checked and cabin allowance before you pay, and see our airline contacts and baggage directory to confirm the rules for your carrier.
Who handles changes, cancellations and refunds?
Your airline, under the fare you booked — not JKIA.co.ke. Read the change and refund rules before booking, and afterwards manage your booking directly with the airline through its official channels.
Do I need an eTA or vaccinations to fly to Nairobi?
Most visitors need a Kenya eTA to enter (unless exempt), and some journeys require proof of yellow-fever vaccination. Sort these before you travel — see our Kenya eTA and health-requirements guides.
How do I contact the airline after I’ve booked?
Use the airline’s official website, app or call centre for check-in, seats, changes and baggage. Our airline contacts and baggage directory routes you to the right official channel for each carrier serving JKIA.
