Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from East London Airport (ELS) to Zanzibar Airport last minute?
Being spontaneous is a terrific way to explore the globe, but it isn't always the wisest way to score a cheap airfare. It's better to book your East London Airport (ELS) to Zanzibar Intl. Airport (ZNZ) journey well ahead of time rather than leaving it until the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. You can unleash your spontaneous side when you arrive at your destination!
What airports do you fly into for Zanzibar Town from East London?
You have two options when jetting from East London to Zanzibar Town — Zanzibar Intl. Airport (ZNZ) and Julius Nyerere Intl. Airport (DAR). If you touch down at Zanzibar Intl. Airport (ZNZ) you'll be approximately 6 kilometers to the southeast of the center of Zanzibar Town. Make your way to your hotel and then head out and explore your new surroundings. Shangani Beach and Prison Island are two of this destination's top attractions.
Can I change the date of my flight from ELS to Zanzibar Airport?
You can quickly make changes to your ELS to ZNZ trip through the Expedia Trips portal. Before you amend times or dates, read through the rules and conditions in your itinerary to learn what the carrier will allow you to do and what charges may apply.
