FAQs - booking Botswana flights

  • What documentation do I need in order to fly to Botswana?

    As a US citizen traveling to Botswana, you do not need a visa but you do need a passport. Your passport to fly to Botswana must be valid for 6 months and it must have at least three unused pages.

  • Should I fly to Gaborone if I am going to Botswana in order to visit Chobe National Park?

    If you are flying to Botswana to see the elephants and crocodiles in Chobe National Park, you should book a flight that lands at the Kasane International Airport (BBK). BBK is situated just outside the Sedudu Gate to the Chobe National Park.

  • Which airport should I depart from if I am flying from Washington DC to Gaborone in Botswana?

    When you are booking a flight from Washington DC to Gaborone (GBE) through KAYAK, you will most likely want to depart from the Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD). If you book your flight well in advance, flights from IAD tend to be significantly cheaper than flights from the Baltimore Washington Thurgood Marshall International Airport (BWI) or from the Ronald Reagan National Airport (DCA).

  • Can I find a non-stop flight from New York City to Botswana?

    When you plan your flight from New York City to Botswana, it is unlikely that you will find a non-stop flight. However, there are a few flight options available that have just one stop if you fly from JFK to Gaborone (GBE). For example, you can find a cheap ticket on Ethiopian Air from JFK to GBE with one stop in Addis Ababa.

  • In order to find a cheap flight from Los Angeles to Gaborone, will I need to collect my baggage and check in again for each leg of the flight?

    No, not necessarily. Though some of the cheapest tickets from LAX to Gaborone (GBE) do involve self-transfers, not all of the cheapest tickets do. For example, you can often find a cheap ticket on Ethiopian Air with two stops in Washington and Addis Ababa and no self-transfers.

  • Can I find cheap tickets to Gaborone that depart from either major airport in Chicago?

    Yes. Though there are far more options available for cheap flights that depart from Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD), you can sometimes find a cheap flight that departs from Midway International Airport (MDW). Through KAYAK, investigate your ticket options carefully to find the flight that works for you. 

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from the United States to Botswana?

    KAYAK is a travel search engine. That means we look across the web to find the best prices we can find for our users. With over 2 billion flight queries processed yearly, we are able to display a variety of prices and options on flights from the United States to Botswana.

  • How does KAYAK's flight Price Forecast tool help me choose the right time to buy my flight ticket from the United States to Botswana?

    KAYAK’s flight Price Forecast tool uses historical data to determine whether the price for a flight from the United States to Botswana is likely to change within 7 days, so travelers know whether to wait or book now.

  • What is the Hacker Fare option on flights from the United States to Botswana?

    Hacker Fares allow you to combine one-way tickets in order to save you money over a traditional round-trip ticket. You could then fly from the United States to Botswana with an airline and back with another airline.

  • What is KAYAK's "flexible dates" feature and why should I care when looking for a flight from the United States to Botswana?

    Sometimes travel dates aren't set in stone. If your preferred travel dates have some wiggle room, flexible dates will show you all the options when flying from the United States to Botswana up to 3 days before/after your preferred dates. You can then pick the flights that suit you best.

  • What is the cheapest day to fly to Botswana?

    Based on KAYAK data, the cheapest day to fly to Botswana is Thursday where round-trip tickets can be as cheap as $829. On the other hand, the most expensive day to fly is Saturday, where round-trip prices are $1,029 on average.

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Botswana

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Botswana flight deals.
  • When you book a flight through KAYAK from a US city to Botswana in the southern part of Africa, you'll most likely land at the Sir Seretse Khama International Airport (GBE). This airport serves the city of Gaborone, the capital of Botswana. GBE is a hub for Air Botswana and Nefertiti Airlines.
  • Flights from the US to Botswana can land at three smaller airports located north of Gaborone (GBE). The Kasane Airport (BBK) serves Kasane the northwestern part of the country, the Maun Airport (MUB) serves Maun, in the northern tip of Botswana, and the Francistown Airport (FRW) serves Francistown, in the northeast. Fights to these three airports tend to have fewer flight options, cost more, and entail more stops than flights to Gaborone.
  • From the Sir Seretse Khama International Airport (GBE), you can fly to nearby cities in Botswana and neighboring countries. On Air Botswana, you can fly to Francistown, Kasane, and Maun in Botswana. On Air Botswana you can also fly internationally to Cape Town and Johannesburg in South Africa, to Harare in Zimbabwe, and to Lusaka in Zambia. On Airlink you can fly to Johannesburg and on Ethiopian Airlines you can fly to Addis Ababa.
  • Though the cheapest tickets available on flights from the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to Gaborone (GBE) have multiple stops that entail self-transfers or an airport change, investigate your ticket options carefully. For not much more money, you can find other cheap flights that have two stops, no self-transfers, and shorter layovers. For example, you can find a relatively cheap ticket from SEA to GBE on Alaska Airlines paired with Ethiopian Air with just two stops in Washington DC and Addis Ababa.
  • If you plan to also explore Zimbabwe when you land in Botswana, consider booking a flight that lands at the Francistown Airport (FRW). From FRW, it takes just 45 minutes to drive to the Zimbabwe border and less than 3 hours to drive to the Zimbabwe city Bulawayo.
  • If you want to explore the countries in the southern tip of Africa by car, consider flights not only to Gaborone but also to Johannesburg or Cape Town in South Africa. Sometimes flights to the OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg or to the Cape Town International Airport (CPT) can be cheaper than flights to Gaborone (GBE).
  • If you are travelling to Botswana in order to go on safari in the renowned Moremi Game Reserve, you'll most likely want to fly into the Maun Airport (MUB). Maun and its airport are located just outside the game reserve in northwestern Botswana.

This trip was the most comfortable one I have ever experienced, the team was excellent and very helpful. I am so glad I picked Qatar Airways.

All the crew members were too slow and rude. Most of the times the registers were empty, while hundreds of customers were waiting in line, and it was impossible to get a supervisor. Despite being in line on time, I missed my freight, plus a some customers who were ahead and behind me.

Well organized boarding, efficient and on time. Nice crew on the plane. Thank you!

The Qatar Airways staff pre-boarding and also on the flight from Dallas to Doha were incredibly mediocre and arrogant. Consider retraining these individuals Other flights were ok.

My experience with Qatar airway was very unsatisfactory. They lost my child’s stroller and I was told they found it and will send it to the hotel which was a lie. I had to go back to the airport baggage claim and pick up myself after trying to contact them many times!. There was a lack professional and communication. I am very disappointed in Qatar airway and will not be recommending them to friends and family nor will I be flying with them in the future.

Worst air experience in whole life . Boarding and checking was hassle as they did 3 times. Crew team was clueless about passengers need. Despite of passengers raising hand , they were resetting the program

The food is not good and also if you ask crew to bring something they say ok I will bring but you will never get it. Please they should listen good to passengers

No difference between US airline and Qatar. Both cramp as many people. The airline seems to change planes without notice choice is seating when making reservations online doesn’t match the plane a passenger is on. Especially paying extra. Nothing special No different than US carriers.

Did not like anything. Seats were crammed, leg space was minimal and food was terrible. This was the first time traveling overseas in American Airlines and was the worst experience ever. Have learned a lesson to never travel in American Airlines.

Delayed my flights and no communication. We end up spending 6 hrs in Doha. No food or any concern from the airline. Terrible

United was best airlines I have seen since I got there choose united airlines

It was wonderful best Air lines covert and all very happy with their service they have been very helpful and friendly

No Asian Vegetarian food was available on this sector but only fish and chicken and pasta were offered.

Flight was delayed an hour. Also, I bought an extra legroom seat online; but the actually plane was a different configuration so I didn't get what I paid for . This happened on the Addis to Lusaka leg of my trip.

My experience was great. The flight attendants were very helpful and nice, and the food was very good.

Very bad experience flight was over 5 hours delayed 😑 not a chance to be put on another flight we had to stay at the hotel we lost 2 days on our vacation. Never again I will fligh with Ethiopian airlines.

Terrible customer service I lost my bag luggage and I still haven’t received any information

I liked nothing of Ethiopian airlines except the price of the fare.

Like: Plane made it to the destination. Dislike: Food is terrible, no entertainment, very dirty airplane.

The food needs to improve especially the fish as there where only 3 fish cubes in my plate.

The payment system was not working so was unable to connect wifi the entire flight

everything to do with KAYAK was terrible. Your customer facing departments are utterly useless, timewasting and unhelpful.

I ordered short ribs for main course. It tasted sweet, really sweet. Horrible.

Our luggage didn’t arrive with us, that puts a damper on the whole trip.

The screen didn’t work and I didn’t get the seat upgrade I paid $300 for. They were no help with that,

Paid $180 for seat selection, and selection essnt honored. Have to call for a refund.

Was 3 hrs delayed and my poor friend I met in Barcelona was waiting at airport for 3 hrs. Dallas airport was awful

The internet was horrible. Plus they charged me $25 for service that didn't work which should have been free since I'm Concierge Key. The flight attendant Rick Young was excellent. Greeted me by name and very attentive.

Not good. First time flying AA in years and won’t be doing so again. We departed late and missed our connecting flight to Barcelona. As a result we missed the first two days of a Mediterranean cruise. No reason given for the delay. Got rerouted from JFK to Heathrow and then to Barcelona. Flight to Heathrow was delayed causing us to miss the flight to Barcelona again. Routed then to Palmero where we had to purchase transportation and a 2 night hotel stay to pick up the cruise there. Probably cost us $2k plus.

My flights were great and the crew on them was lovely especially the London to Barcelona flight as Al & AJ were so amazingly nice. I wish they would be my crew always as they have the best customer service. Sadly both flights were delayed the first one from Vegas was because they clearly loaded the cargo wrong the plane was off balance making us 2 hours late. This made me miss my connection and sadly it was challenging rebooking while I was on the flight. I will never use Kayak again as there was no customer service number or live chat and you rebooked me on a flight 2 days later. I had my mom call BA to change it which she did after spending an hour on hold. This should not be so difficult. My second flight was an hour delayed due to not being able to disconnect the bridge from the plane but I did finally make it home.
