How to get the best deal on a Nairobi — Ouagadougou ticket

  • When to book: The best time to search for tickets is 6–8 weeks before departure, as prices on African routes rarely drop just before the flight date.
  • Choosing the day: Flying on Tuesday or Wednesday is often cheaper than weekend flights, saving you $57.
  • Layovers: Compare flights with connections in Addis Ababa or Lomé; these can be significantly more cost-effective than trying to find a direct flight, which is rare on this route.
  • Baggage: Carefully check the tariffs of regional carriers, as fees for additional checked baggage at the airport can significantly increase the final cost of your trip.
  • Tools: Use the low-price calendar on this page to clearly see which dates offer the lowest ticket prices.
