Although the lodge is not physically attached to the airport terminal, it is extremely close and provides a shuttle for passenger convenience.

The airline provides kid-friendly amenities like bassinets for infants under eight months and priority boarding for families with children under 2.

    Besides serving as the gateway to Freetown, FNA also serves as a destination airport for travelers connecting to nearby cities such as Bo, Kenema, and Conakry in Guinea, Monrovia in Liberia, and Bissau in Guinea-Bissau.

Your guide to booking Freetown flights

From booking to airport arrival, find tips to help you plan your flight with more confidence.
  • For the best chance at a low fare to Freetown, book around 4 weeks before departure. Based on KAYAK data from the last 12 months, fares are historically about 15% lower during this window than last-minute fares.
  • For flights to Freetown, a good round-trip fare is around $1,439. If you find a fare below that, you're getting a strong deal.
  • If your travel dates are flexible, consider flying to Freetown in February. Round-trip fares historically average $1,471, making February the cheapest month to travel based on KAYAK data from the last 12 months.
  • Before you book:

    • Check the route's typical price range so you can spot a deal.
    • Confirm baggage fees and seat-selection costs on budget carriers.
    • Verify whether you need any travel documents beyond ID.
    • Pick a departure airport, since your nearest may not be the cheapest origin.
  • Shift your departure to evening to save up to $362 per round-trip. Evening flights to Freetown average $1,506 compared to $1,868 for morning flights.
  • The Freetown International Airport (FNA), also known as the Lungi International Airport, serves the capital area of Sierra Leone as the only international airport in the country. This airport provides convenient and inexpensive connections to major destinations in Africa such as Banjul and Accra, but also to cities in Europe, such as Brussels or Paris.
  • Accessing Freetown from the airport will mean crossing the Sierra Leone River. Therefore, expect to take either a large “water taxi” boat or the cheaper, albeit slower, public ferry. Either will bring passengers to the other side of the estuary in about 30min to an hour or so. As an alternative, there are buses or taxis which can take the highway from the airport, but these rides will generally last for several hours due to traffic congestion and the need to circumvent the estuary.
  • Passengers will find most of the services they need in the General Waiting Hall of the airport building, including ticketing services (for both airlines and local transportation) desks, a lost & found office, dining options, and an information center for tourists.
  • Need to exchange currency once you land in Freetown? The Arrivals Hall of the airport features two bank branches in addition to a currency exchange office where travelers can receive local currency (Sierra Leonean leones). There are also a couple of ATMs which will dispense local currency for holders of international bank cards such as Visa, Mastercard, etc.
  • Need some refreshment during your journey? The Freetown International Airport features a number of cafés and small bars serving drinks and light fare in both the Arrivals and Departures wings of the main terminal building. These locations operate during normal business hours.
  • Persons with Reduced Mobility (PRMs) need not worry about their flight to Freetown. FNA PRMs can access free returnable wheelchairs and other PRM-friendly services from the General Waiting Hall of the airport building.
  • Freetown International Airport (FNA) is the focus airport for SWISS, KLM, Delta, and Turkish Airlines. These airlines, therefore, offer the highest number of flight options from the US to Freetown's FNA.
