Cheap Flights from Sharjah to Dar Es Salaam Starting at $246

Sharjah International Airport (SHJ) is typically positioned as a cost-conscious regional gateway serving many budget and full-service carriers, often handling a mix of UAE domestic links and international flights across South Asia, the Middle East and Africa. Fares from Sharjah can be perceived as more budget-friendly compared with Dubai’s main hubs, though choices and schedules vary. The airport sits about 15–20 km northeast of Sharjah city centre; taxi rides usually take 20–35 minutes depending on traffic, with fares commonly in a modest local range, while public buses can take 40–60 minutes at lower cost. Pros: convenient for low-cost carriers and shorter queue times for some services; cons: fewer premium lounges and fewer direct long-haul options than larger regional hubs, and travellers should allow extra time for transfers if heading to Dubai or Abu Dhabi.

Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) is the main international gateway for Dar es Salaam and typically functions as the city’s primary hub for both full-service and regional carriers, with budget airlines also operating frequent domestic and East African routes. The airport sits about 12–15 km north of the city centre; travel times by taxi or ride-hail are commonly 20–40 minutes depending on traffic, while bus and shared shuttle options can take 40–60 minutes with lower fares. Expect a mix of basic and mid-range amenities — immigration and transfers are usually straightforward but queues can form during peak periods. Pros: central location and broad airline choice; cons: occasional congestion and limited premium lounge facilities relative to larger international hubs.
