FAQs for booking Nairobi to Kisumu flights

  • What's the best way to travel to and from the two airports?

    You can easily get public transport from the city centre to Nairobi Airport. Simply hop onto one of the many buses that run on Line 110. They leave every 5min and take about 40min to reach the airport. Unfortunately, no public transport is available from Kisumu Airport to the central district, but it's only about an 8min taxi ride. Alternatively, hire a car.

  • What facilities does Nairobi Airport offer?

You can shop for travel essentials, clothes and books, and a well-stocked pharmacy is open around the clock. Service staff are available to assist with queries or issues you may have. If you're travelling with young children, you can take them to the kids' play area to keep them occupied while you wait.

KAYAK’s top tips for finding a cheap flight from Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta Intl Airport to Kisumu

  • You'll always leave from Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta Airport (NBO) on this route. Domestic carriers offer early physical or online check-in and have transfer counters in the airport's departure hall. If you want a light snack before flying, head to the Safari Coffee Shop.
  • You'll land at Kisumu Airport (KIS). It's a small terminal with basic facilities, but this won't bother you as it has all you'll need before you head into the city. There are cash machines, and you can take a quick shower in modern cubicles to freshen up before leaving.
  • The Kenya Airports Authority owns and operates both Jomo Kenyatta and Kisumu airports. It supplies trained Customer Support Teams dedicated to assisting passengers with any needs, particularly those with limited mobility. You'll need to pre-book this through your travel agent or airline.
  • Kisumu Airport lies on an inlet of Lake Victoria and serves many other smaller cities and towns in western Kenya. You can hire a car from here and drive to Kericho, Nyamira, Kapsabet and Bungoma. The lakeside town of Homa Bay lies to the south.
  • Nairobi's JomoKenyatta Airport is the busiest air hub in East Africa, so it's well-equipped to make flying efficient and enjoyable. It's the home base of Kenya Airlines, which has direct passenger support services at the airport. Something to note when choosing your carrier.
