Most international flights to and from Nairobi are handled by Jomo Kenyatta International airport, 15km southeast of the Nairobi city. By African standards it’s a pretty well organised place, with two international terminals, a smaller domestic terminal and an incredible number of shops offering duty free and expensive souvenirs, snacks and Internet access. You can walk easily between the terminals.
Some flights between Nairobi and Kilimanjaro International Airport or Mwanza in Tanzania, as well as many domestic flights use Wilson airport, which is about 6km south of the city centre on Langata Rd. The other arrival point into the country is the Moi International airport in Mombasa, 9km west of the Mombasa city centre, but apart from flights to Zanzibar this is mainly used by charter airlines and domestic flights.
Kenya airways are the main national airline and has a generally good safety record with only one fatal accident since 1977. The following are airlines flying to and from Kenya.
