does anyone know how to get a cheap ticket from amsterdam, brussels or dusseldorf to Kenya,? (nairobi or mombasa)
we search and search, but it seems to be impossible.
To Tunesia, or egypt or the Gambia it's possible for €200,- and to Johannesburg for €450,- to london for €21,-, and to kenya at least €590, and for that price we have to go through london...Anyway, 2 weeks all inclusive is cheaper than a ticket...
who can help?

Now those are the best prices I've seen to date. 75% off fare for a child under 12...
Every carrier I've called doesn't offer that kind of a discount.....cool beans thanks!

Thanks people, but to get to another country first makes it, again, more expensive than an all-inclusive vacationtrip...
It seems impossible...
WHY can you go everywhere for allmost nothing, and not to Kenya??

Bonga, why not take the all inclusive offer? They can't force you to stay in the hotel!

What do you mean?
Where is it cheaper than Kenya in Africa?
And of course all inclusive is Cheaper. Thats why it's there in the first place. To tie the Tourist in the Hotel!

I mean that you can fly to The Gambia, Tunesia, Egypt, Johannesburg for a few hundred Euro, but to Kenya, it is just impossible to find a ticket under 600/700 euro.
Ofcourse it is easier to buy an all-inclusive trip, but a cheap ticket would be so good, because we have other places to stay! ( friends houses etc.)
If we could find a ticket like to The Gambia ( 175 euro! ) we could visit Kenya more often...and we would really want that.

Do you know the distance between Holland-Gambia and Holland-Kenya?
And it depents when you want to fly to Kenya. I am sure you get the same cheap Tickets like to South Africa.

nope....the cheapest ticket was €509,- (budget air last minute flight from amsterdam)
BUT we found a last minute arrangment (the very last one, we got lucky today)
for 399,- 9 days, halfboard. We won't stay in Bamburi, but in Diani, so we don't use the hotel.
Great, counting the days to get there again.

€399 is really peanuts, especially for what you're getting.

you are absolutely right. Some last minutes are really unbelievably cheap.
The positive thing is that all flights were full from 30-6 to 14th of july, in Holland, belgium and germany, so I hope that means better business for the kenyans.

Bonga for all the money you spend on airfare and if you like it there so much why don't you lift bag and baggage and move there? probably be cheaper in the long run.....

I do not know about anyone else, but I am hoping that after my visit I may like it so much that I want to move there. I can't wait !!!!!
