Tel: (022) 284 2461 or 284 4371.

Located 12km (7.5 miles) southwest of the city centre on Nyerere Road, this is the main arrival point for domestic and overseas flights. It has two terminals, about 700m (2,300ft) apart. Terminal 2 is newer and has most scheduled domestic and international flights. Terminal 1 is customarily used for charter flights.

The airport has a scant collection of amenities including a handful of exchange bureaus, some souvenir shops, a bar, a restaurant and an Internet connection. Avoid the touts and agencies here as many are unreliable.

To get to and from the airport take a dalla-dalla (minibuses) signed U/Ndege (short for Uwanja wa Ndege, meaning airport) or a taxi.
