Nairobi is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO) is the primary international hub, handling most long-haul and regional flights with full-service carriers and some low-cost operators; it sits about 15–20 km southeast of the city centre, typically a 30–60 minute drive depending on traffic. Taxis, ride-hailing apps and airport shuttles are common (fares often ranging from affordable metered rates to moderate flat fees). Wilson Airport (WIL), located roughly 5 km south of downtown, is usually the base for domestic, charter and regional safari flights and is favored for quick connections to Kenya’s parks. It can be reached in 15–30 minutes by taxi or shuttle at lower comparative prices. Pros: NBO offers broad international connectivity and more amenities; Wilson is convenient for domestic and bush-bound travellers. Cons: both can be affected by Nairobi traffic and peak-time queues; travellers may prefer extra time for connections.
