There are no direct flights to The Gambia from many parts of the world, so connecting flights are the most likely option. 

​

Here's a general guide on how to fly to the Gambia:

​

1. Search for Flights: Utilize flight search engines like Kayak, Skyscanner, or Google Flights to find the best deals on flights to Banjul International Airport (BJL).  These websites allow you to search for flights from your desired origin city to Banjul.

​

2. Consider Connecting Flights: Since non-stop flights may not be available from your location,  be prepared to book connecting flights. This may involve flying to a major international hub city, such as Istanbul, London, Paris, Brussels or Dakar, before connecting to Banjul. 

 

3. Book Your Flight: Once you've narrowed down your search and found the most suitable flight option, proceed to book your flight directly through the airline's website or a reputable travel agent.

​

4. Entry Requirements: Ensure you have all the necessary travel documents, including a valid passport and visa (if required) before your flight. Gambia visa requirements can vary depending on your nationality, so check with the nearest Gambian embassy or consulate for the latest information.

 

5. Airline Options: Royal Air Maroc, TAP Air Portugal, Vueling Airlines, Brussels Airlines, and Turkish Airlines are some of the major carriers that offer connecting flights to Banjul. Please click on the links given below.
