About flights to Tanzania
Overview
Tanzania is home to the Serengeti, the Ngorongoro Crater, Mount Kilimanjaro and the spice island of Zanzibar — safari and beach in one unforgettable country.
Best time to fly to Tanzania
The dry season (June–October) is best for safaris; the Great Migration crosses the Serengeti mid-year. Zanzibar is warm year-round, drier December–February. The price charts on this page show the cheapest dates for your route.
Main gateway cities & airports
Main gateways are Kilimanjaro (JRO) for safaris, Dar es Salaam (DAR) and Zanzibar (ZNZ).
Airlines and routes
UK travellers reach Tanzania via a single hub with Qatar Airways, Emirates, KLM, Turkish Airlines and Kenya Airways — typically 11–13 hours.
Popular places to visit in Tanzania
- The Serengeti: the Great Migration and endless plains
- Ngorongoro Crater: a wildlife-packed natural amphitheatre
- Zanzibar: spice-island beaches and Stone Town
- Mount Kilimanjaro: Africa's highest peak
- Selous / Nyerere: wild southern safari
Top tips for finding cheap flights to Tanzania
- Book several weeks to a few months ahead for the best value.
- Travel outside peak and festive seasons where possible.
- Compare direct and one-stop routes for the best fare.
- Be flexible with dates — midweek departures are often cheaper.
Travel essentials
- Visa: UK travellers need a visa, available as an e-Visa online or on arrival
- Currency: the Tanzanian shilling (TZS)
Baggage & hand-luggage allowance for flights to Tanzania
Your allowance to Tanzania depends on the airline and the fare you book. The table below shows typical long-haul allowances so you know roughly what to expect — always confirm the exact limits with your airline before you fly.
| Fare type | Hand baggage | Checked baggage |
|---|---|---|
| Basic / Light economy | 1 small under-seat bag | Usually none — add for a fee |
| Standard economy | 1 cabin bag + 1 personal item | Typically 1 × 23 kg |
| Premium economy | 1–2 cabin bags + personal item | Typically 2 × 23 kg |
| Business / First | 2 cabin bags + personal item | Typically 2 × 32 kg |
Indicative only. Allowances vary by airline, route and fare — always check your airline's baggage policy.
Packing & baggage tips
- Full-service carriers (e.g. British Airways, Turkish Airlines, KLM) usually include a checked bag on long-haul economy fares; basic/low-cost fares often don't.
- Cabin (hand) bag size is commonly around 56 × 45 × 25 cm — confirm your airline's limit before you pack.
- Liquids in hand luggage must be in containers of 100 ml or less, inside one clear resealable bag.
- Weigh your bags at home — airport excess-baggage fees are far higher than pre-booked allowances.
- Extra or heavier bags are almost always cheaper added online in advance than at the airport.
