Questions before you search

Where do I complete my booking?

Our search opens on Aviasales, a partner flight-search site, in a new tab. The airline or travel agency you choose there handles the booking and payment. CheapFlightsAfrica does not sell tickets.

Are the fares on this site live?

No. We show the lowest fares that Aviasales searches found recently, with the date they were observed. They are refreshed weekly, recorded in US dollars, and are not guaranteed seats. Always check the current price for your dates. How we show fares

Why are prices in US dollars?

Our fare data is recorded in US dollars. We do not convert to rand, naira or other currencies without a sourced, dated exchange rate. Aviasales shows prices in the currency of your location or account settings.

Do you tell me whether I need a visa?

No. Entry rules depend on your passport, where you are going, why and for how long. We link to official sources; check them for your own passport before you book.

How does CheapFlightsAfrica earn money?

We may earn a commission when you book through a partner link, at no extra cost to you. It does not change which routes or airlines we describe. Affiliate disclosure
