FAQs - booking Kinshasa flights

  • Are there any airport lounges in Kinshasa Airport?

    Yes, Kinshasa Airport has two VIP Saloon Okapi and VIP Commercial Lounge. VIP Saloon Okapi costs $25 (around £18) for entry, and VIP Commercial Lounge costs around $35 (around £25). Both offer complimentary alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, and you'll also receive free Wi-Fi access (which isn't available in the rest of Kinshasa Airport).

  • Are there any airport hotels at Kinshasa Airport?

    Currently, no; Kinshasa Airport isn't open between the hours of 00:00 and 06:00, so it does not currently have any on-site hotels. However, there are some hotels that are a little closer to the airport than Kinshasa itself (around 35-45min compared to around one hour), for example the Beatrice Hotel or the Hotel Royal Kinshasa.

  • What's the quickest way to get from Kinshasa Airport into Kinshasa?

    If you want to ensure you get to your hotel in Kinshasa as quickly as possible after your long flight, we recommend that you take a taxi. Official taxis are available outside Kinshasa's terminal buildings; the official taxis affiliated with the airport are blue and yellow. It costs around $20-$50 (£14-£36) depending on traffic and which part of the city you're travelling to, and it's a good idea to negotiate your fare with the driver before you get into the taxi.

  • What food options do I have in Kinshasa Airport?

    You have multiple choices. Airside, Kinshasa Airport has a small cafeteria and some shops, and landside it has a full restaurant, so you'll be able to grab something to eat if you're hungry when you land. Please note that the airport food options can sometimes be on the pricey side compared to food choices outside, so if you are travelling on a tight budget you may want to look around for your best budget-friendly options.

  • What public transportation services are on offer from Kinshasa Airport?

    When you land at the airport you may need to take conventional public transportation to the city. Apart from taxis there are two ways to ensure you get there. Public commuter trains leave regularly from the airport and will go into the city as well as Transo buses, which have a bus stop right outside the terminals of the airport. It is recommended that you opt for taxis if you have a lot of luggage as the buses and trains are often over-crowded at rush hour. The taxi ride will average between 5000 CDF and 10000 CDF (around 2-5 GBP) one way.

  • Is there a smoking area at Kinshasa Airport?

    There is no official designated smoking area on either airside or landside of the terminals at Kinshasa Airport. With the airport being so small, it is quite easy to pop outside when you are still landside and have a cigarette. Once you are passed baggage check-in and waiting airside there will unfortunately be no smoking allowed. Many of the Democratic of Congo’s hotels have a no-smoking policy, so check beforehand if you would like to find smoking accommodation.

  • How far is Kinshasa N'djili Airport from central Kinshasa?

    There are 11 miles between Kinshasa city centre and Kinshasa N'djili Airport.

  • What is the name of Kinshasa’s airport?

    Kinshasa is served by Kinshasa N'djili Airport, also commonly referred to as Kinshasa Intl, N'Djili Intl, or N'djili. The airport code is FIH.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights to Kinshasa?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights to Kinshasa.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket to Kinshasa?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight to Kinshasa is likely to change within 7 days, so travellers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights to Kinshasa?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket. You could then fly to Kinshasa with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight to Kinshasa?

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Kinshasa

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Kinshasa flight deals.
  • While there are no direct flights from London to Kinshasa, there are dozens of routes so you'll have plenty of choice for stopover airports; frequent stopover locations include Brussels Airport (BRU), Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport (CDG), and Istanbul Airport (IST).
  • Kinshasa International Airport (FIH) is the main airport serving the Congo; other airports (such as Goma International Airport (GOM)) don't serve many international routes. If you want to travel to a different area of the Congo served by one of its other airports, we recommend that you fly to Kinshasa then take a connecting flight.
  • If you're staying in a hotel in Kinshasa, we recommend that you check whether they offer a hotel shuttle service from the airport; it's fairly common for Kinshasa hotels to offer airport pickups for up to $50 (around £36).
  • If you don't want to rely on public transport while you're in Kinshasa, it could be a good idea to hire a car; you can rent your car through KAYAK when you book your flight, then pick it up in the airport when you land. You'll see the car hire desks once you've passed baggage pickup and entered the Arrivals Hall.
  • The official currency in Kinshasa is the Congolese Franc, but US dollars are also accepted almost everywhere. We recommend that you withdraw US dollars for larger items (as notes under $5 aren't accepted), and keep some Congolese Francs on you for smaller items. You can withdraw US dollars and Francs from ATMs in Kinshasa.
  • Kinshasa Airport is a small but functional airport. As it continues to grow you will find new upgrades taking place in the airport regularly. There is an information desk based inside the main lobby of the airport to assist with anything you could ask for and if you need medical services when you arrive in Kinshasa you can always arrange an air or ground ambulance through the information desk.
  • While the official language of the Democratic Republic of Congo is French, airport staff can speak English to any passengers flying into Kinshasa. The airport is well-signed in English too, making travel easy for many passengers.
  • The Kinshasa Airport has a post office that can assist with a variety of needs, including posting documents, couriering packages, and photocopies. Please note it closes at 18:00 with the rest of the airport. It can be found in the main lobby of the airport.

My experience was good overall, the quality of the food really decreased! There used to be a choice between meat and fish now it’s between chicken and pasta! In the choices of entertainment meditation has been added which is very good. Soft chair workout to improve blood circulation and avoid phlebitis should be added.

In the choices of entertainment meditation has been added which is very good. Soft chair workout to improve blood circulation and avoid phlebitis should be added.

The only reason the overall rating wasn't "excellent" was due to problems in claiming luggage. The bags are delivered to the main area (Cinta 35) for domestic passengers, but to a DIFFERENT ROOM for international arrivees. After waiting 30 minutes, someone (who didn't appear to be from Air France or the airport) told us to go to another area. There we found our bags, which appeared to have been awaiting us for a while. We had to go through a bag check before leaving the airport. If we had been alerted to this possibility, or better yet, been to go directly to Cinta 34, we could have eliminated quite a bit of waiting.

Much better than the major US Carriers especially in Biz Class.

I wish that the meal included a vegetable or even a salad instead of couscous! Why serve chicken with rice AND couscous? Service was good overall though a bit lacking in friendliness. Usually on air france I've been offered a glass of champagne before dinner, wine with dinner, and a digestif after dinner. We were only offered wine this time!

It was not Air France but Air Europa. But confusion over our checked luggage. Whether it was checked all the way to Tenerife or not. It was not. Had to line up again in Departures. At least our Sky Priority was honoured. Flight was fine.

My wife and I had a row to ourselves after moving seats. There were no TVs and you had to buy food. So we did nothing but had a quick nap. Flight was fine.

The male attended that served are section was a snob. He did not answer my call light when my wine spilled all over the floor. I did not push it again or drew his attention to it. He just ignored the call light when he came to give us our meal, serving the people behind us first. I did not push it again or drew his attention to it to see his reaction. It was so obvious that he was ignoring us. We were in premium economy!

The plane was old Only 3 bathrooms available for economy The entertainment was old and the selection was poor

Georgian Airways check in staff initially denied us, because they thought passengers required transit visas to transfer on connecting flights. This required 70 minutes for them to call multiple people to confirm how transfers worked. They did not apologize once accepting our check in. Onboard, the four hour flight gave stale bread with spam slices as lunch. The only included drinks were still or sparkling water.

I did not get my baggage at my final destination..poor coordination with connecting flights with partner airlines (Saudi airways). Also the food was very mediocre.

Actually this is my first time using airline I was in every single thing that happened throughout our journey, the appearance of the plane inside furnished about the seating the flight attendants and many many more I was so excited throughout thank you Brussels Airlines for the great service.

On board service was decent. I like the legroom at UA that seems to be more than in other airlines

It was really good because the employees were very nice and fun to talk to. The entertainment was nice because they had plenty of movies to watch.

Crew was enthusiastic. Meal was surprisingly good. They came to give water very frequently. Negative that the seat reclining didn't work

That was a short flight by the only time I could actually sleep

How can a national carrier and part of Lufthansa group not even provide complimentary water and a snack in such a long flight ?

The flight went well, only during the flight from Brussels to Vilnius I would have liked if they had at least given us plain water to drink.

The boarding process would have been better. When people are flying internationally and the airline is a member of Star Alliance they cannot have different rules for carryon baggage. Brussels Airlines made us adjust the weight of our carryons based on their rules even though we were flying international and our next flight was with United which does not have weight restrictions for carryons. That was just ridiculous.

We waited in line for more than 30 minutes to go through the check in (after the staff summoned us). Once on the plane we had to wait almost two hours before takeoff. The copilot said that it was not their fault but that the plane had arrived late in the first place and lost the slot to leave again because of the heavy traffic, This is completely understandable in our times, but I would have expected a little bit of pampering from the staff. We received a tiny little cup of water because we complained. Not a coffee, not a cookie, no music on the plane, no plugs to recharge your cellphone. It was very cold inside the plane and someone asked for a blanket for a baby - very harsh answer from the staff, no blankets on this plane. I think they should review their instructions and team spirit as traveling is also the experience, not only getting from A to B. And it’s not fun to interact with staff that doesn’t seem like they are enjoying their job. And as far as I know and judging from the cost of the ticket Brussels Airlines it’s not even a low cost!

Terrible seats. Whoever designed the seats should try taking a long flight in it themselves.

5 unnecessary control before get in the craft. It is exagerated and very inefficient

Here's a sample answer: "Honestly, I was really impressed with Turkish Airlines, but if I had to suggest one area for improvement, it would be: - *More efficient boarding process*: I noticed that boarding took a bit longer than expected, which might be frustrating for passengers with tight connections.

Unbelievable food and service! Chefs are amazing onboard. WiFi spotty

Turkish Airlines overbooked the flight and they did not allow me to board the flight even though I had the proper boarding pass and was at the gate on time. Simply unacceptable.

The fully flat bed in business class on the 777 is a little narrow, and the 2-3-2 configuration is now dated, but otherwise a comfortable and pleasant flight. It’s hard to beat the value too.

they have cancell the flight with no reasons, My parents were in the cold weather in the airport for 24 hours they did not give any hotel and food. I hate Turkish Airline, this is our last time that we ha ve chosen Turkish Airline.

they have cancell the flight for no reasons and 24 hours my parents were in the Airport they did not give them any hotel any food, I hate Turkish Airline.

Cleanliness of seats, trays, storage pockets need more attention, but everything else was good.

Vegan food tasted good. Restroom could be kept cleaner. Seat tray table was a bit tilted so food tray kept sliding down a bit. Flight crew can be a little more friendly, caring and approachable. Their faces lacked smiles and tone was stern.

Very old plane on the Istanbul to Bangkok flight, had an emergency exit isle row, no where to put anything, on a plus point loads of leg room. Food was the best I have had in 39 years of flying.

It was wonderful best Air lines covert and all very happy with their service they have been very helpful and friendly

No Asian Vegetarian food was available on this sector but only fish and chicken and pasta were offered.

For Vegetarian Food was very poor. Though we had opted for Asian Vegetarian Food they didn’t serve but only what was available was served. We were offered Smoked Salmon!

Flight was delayed an hour. Also, I bought an extra legroom seat online; but the actually plane was a different configuration so I didn't get what I paid for . This happened on the Addis to Lusaka leg of my trip.

The plane was overbooked and the crew was very rude. My luggage was never put on the plane. I got to NY and waited 2 hours just to find out that my luggage was left.

Terrible customer service I lost my bag luggage and I still haven’t received any information

The flight delayef for over 2 hours so my route was changed leading to arriving to my destination without my luggage

The ailine departed and arrived late foe every leg of the trip, causing myself and my travel companions to miss every connecting flight. It was very unorganized given theat there was a lot of miscommunication. The flights offered are unrealistic and when you call they assure you that the plane waits for you. I missed an. entire day of my vacation and any entire day of rest back home because of the airline. I do not plan to support the airline again. Thank you

I felt all of the food tasted the same. And we had five meals over the 16 hrs in the air.

Plane was late with no information or announcement … had to walk up n downstairs.., had not communicated this … and ppl had suitcase to carry .

Check in was madness. Boarding was madness. The flight itself was OK, and the flight attendants were nice. Connection to my next flight was two hours. But based on my arrival gate in Cairo, and next departure gate in Cairo, the whole two hours were needed given the inefficient procedures. At the end of my journey (connected to Lufthansa after Egyptair), my checked luggage did not arrive, and after 4 days, has still not arrived.

Everything was ok except cleanliness of the plane, it was poor.

It was appalling! Using small aircraft for 5 hour flights is ridiculous! No legroom, terrible food, no drinks apart from water, tea and coffee (once only) makes it a terrible experience. The cabin staff really badly handled the behaviour of an extremely obnoxious woman who insisted on fully reclining her seat for the duration of the flight with a very tall man behind her. She abused his and the staff and they were not able to deal with her at all other than to tell the man that they are reclining seats and they could not prevent her from doing so. They were also very slow to react when a large nu of passengers stood up and started taking their luggage out of the overhead bins whilst the aircraft was still taxiing at Heathrow. I will never fly Egypt Air again! I know this isn’t the airline’s fault but the security at Cairo airport was a joke. With the terrible security record on flights out of Egypt, they really need to take it seriously. Scanners weren’t working, liquids were allowed on, only one person operating the cray machine and searching bags caused a massive backlog of people…I’m convinced you could have got anything onto that plane if you were determined enough. By the way, it was the same story in Aswan airport.

The plane was old and several things were broken including my seat. The sinks in the restrooms didn’t drain. The armrest on my seat was broken so the seat was constantly reclined. The tray table was broken. The fabric was coming off the seats. The overhead bin doors wouldn’t stay locked. The hotel accommodation was disgusting.

Boarding was chaotic and disorganized, and the foot rest to my seat was broken. But the food was good and the flight attendants were kind and attentive.

So bad we never travel with Egypt air bad service smells bad food bad Ching my sets to back

Food was terrible (I tried the beef plate). Service is improved. The plane is new so it was good enough

Horrible old filthy airplane with brooking seat and entertainment system

Boarding was a nightmare. Still the B773s don’t have WIFI and are a something from the 90s in terms of comfort.

Cairo airport has probably the most stressful and overcomplicated security system in the world. Can't really blame Egypt Airlines.
