Nairobi is primarily served by Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO), the city’s main international hub handling most long-haul and regional carriers, and Wilson Airport (WIL), which typically caters to domestic and light-charter flights. NBO is located about 16 km southeast of the central business district, with road transfers usually taking 30–60 minutes depending on traffic; taxis and ride-hail services commonly charge in a moderate range, while airport shuttles and private transfers can be pricier. Wilson sits roughly 5 km south of downtown and is often quicker to reach by car or short shuttle. Pros: NBO offers extensive international connections and amenities; Wilson can be more convenient for short domestic hops. Cons: road congestion around NBO can add significant time, and fares vary with demand.
