The main international airport in Nairobi, Kenya’s capital, is Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, with daily direct flights from the main European hubs: London, Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam as well as New York.
There are daily arrivals from Johannesburg in South Africa as well as from hubs in the Middle East, including Dubai and Doha.
Flights from Europe take on average just over eight hours, and direct flights from New York will take 15 hours. Those connecting from any other USA hub will need to travel via one of the cities mentioned above.

Visa requirements
Most international visitors to Kenya need an Electronic Travel Authorisation (eTA), applied for in advance through the Kenya Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (eTA). Applications usually take up to 72 hours, but we recommend applying at least two weeks before you travel.
Since 5 October 2026, most visitors must also buy Kenyan government travel health insurance as part of the eTA application, even if their eTA is already approved. As of October 2026, the eTA costs around US$30 and the insurance US$44 per adult (US$22 per child), so around US$74 per adult in total.
As requirements and prices can change, please check the official Kenyan government websites and your own government’s travel advice before you travel. Find out more in our FAQs.
