Cheap Flights from Amsterdam to Nairobi — $323

Amsterdam Airport Schiphol (AMS) is the Netherlands’ main international hub, serving full-service carriers and many low-cost airlines and often acting as a transfer point for European and intercontinental flights. It sits about 17 km southwest of the city center; trains to Amsterdam Centraal typically take 15–20 minutes and run frequently, with fares usually in the low single-figure euros, while buses, taxis and ride-shares can take 25–40 minutes depending on traffic and cost more. Schiphol offers wide facilities and reliable connections but can be busy at peak times, and walking between some gates or dealing with security queues may reduce convenience for quick transfers.

Nairobi is served primarily by Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO) and the smaller Wilson Airport (WIL). Jomo Kenyatta acts as the country’s main international hub, handling most long-haul and regional carriers including major international and full-service African airlines; fares from NBO can be mid-to-premium compared with secondary airports. It sits about 15–20 km southeast of the city center — expect 30–60 minutes by taxi or ride-hail depending on traffic, with fares typically in a moderate range; airport shuttles and private transfers are also common. Pros: wide flight choice and full passenger facilities; cons: congestion and variable transfer times. Wilson Airport is a compact domestic and regional hub popular with light aircraft, charter operators and some low-cost regional carriers. Located roughly 5–8 km from central Nairobi, travel to downtown can take 15–30 minutes by taxi or shuttle, generally at lower fares than from the international airport. Pros: quick ground access and frequent short-haul services; cons: limited long-haul connections and simpler terminal amenities.
