Blaise Diagne International Airport (DSS) serves as Dakar’s main international gateway and typically handles long-haul and regional services, while older Léopold Sédar Senghor Airport is now largely closed to commercial passenger flights. DSS is positioned as Senegal’s primary international hub, with carriers ranging from full-service global airlines to a growing number of low-cost and regional operators, so fares can vary from budget-friendly to premium depending on carrier and season. The airport lies about 50–60 km east of central Dakar; road transfers by shuttle or taxi usually take 45–75 minutes depending on traffic, with shared shuttles or buses often costing a few euros and private taxis higher. Pros: modern facilities, expanding route network and duty-free options. Cons: distance from downtown and occasional congestion on the connecting expressway, which can add unpredictability to transfer times.
