If you need a special meal on your flight, inform Egypt Air of your special dietary needs before you travel.

  • Is it cheap ticket to Kano worth it If I need to change airports in a connection city?

Your guide to booking Kano flights

From booking to airport arrival, find tips to help you plan your flight with more confidence.
  • For flights to Kano, recent KAYAK data shows that stronger deals tend to land around $1,274 round-trip. If you see a fare below that threshold, it's a strong deal – book before the price climbs back up.
  • If you can choose when to go, time your trip to Kano around March. Round-trip fares historically average $1,099 that month – typically the cheapest month to travel based on 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 $239 per round-trip. Evening flights to Kano average $1,373 compared to $1,612 for morning flights. See the time-of-day chart above for the full breakdown.
  • The Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport (KAN), serving the capital of Kano State of Nigeria, is a hub for several airlines, including Nigerian Airways, Kabo Air, Azman Air, Med-View Airline, Max Air, and Freedom Air Services.
  • Some of the cheapest tickets from a US city to Kano involve multiple airlines. If this is the case, make sure that any luggage you bring conforms to the smallest requirements of all the airlines. This is the only way to ensure that every airline will find your luggage acceptable and you can avoid hassles with your luggage and possible extra fees.
  • The Mallam Aminu Kano International Airport (KAN) is the primary airport serving northern Nigeria. Cities served by KAN other than Kano include Dutse to the southeast, Zaria to the southwest, Katsina to the northwest, and Hadejia to the Northeast.
  • When you fly from a US city to Kano, the connection city right before the last leg of your flight will most likely be in Africa, Saudi Arabia, or Qatar because KAN operates flights only between Kano and cities in Nigeria, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Ethiopia, or Egypt. Some common final layover cities on flights from the US to Kano include Cairo (CAI), Addis Ababa (ADD), Doha (DOH), and Khartoum (KRT).
  • If you can find a cheap flight from your US city to Kano aboard Qatar Airways, you will most likely have a comfortable economy flight. The economy seats aboard a Qatar Airways cheap flight tend to be the widest economy seats in the airline industry. These seats also tend to have more legroom than average.

I liked the pilot, he was very good and we arrived on the time

Hello, I did not take the flight from IAD to Cairo- Istanbul on July 14 and could not travel because my next flight was from Istanbul to Tehran. Due to the tension there, I was advised to not to travel. Indeed, I was at the IAD airport at the boarding time 9am, on july 14, I informed egypt air counter head then that I am not taking the flight to Cairo and istanbul!, the team head gave me the contact of local office of egyptair in vienna, VA but they were not in the office on July 14 and I left three voice messages and email explaining my situation to them, but no reply came back from Egyptair Virginia office yet.!! I then informed underpricer customer support on whatsup about the situation and there auto reply sustem said that the support team would call to arrange for rescheduling or refund. but no one contact me yet. Can you provide proper support ?? Thank you Alaa Mohseni B 703655 1662 conf no. CYFFHW

Overall it was a good flight like any other normal flight staff could a littler nicer pretty short and was their to do their job so overall good services can’t complain

Flight was delayed for 3 hrs and there is nothing at the terminal except going back through security again. Food was offered but no vegetarian option

The worst experience ever, me and my little daughter suffered a lot on this trip. If there is zero or below-zero evaluation, definitely, I will give them.

I lost my bad at Cairo’s airpor… it wasn’t shipped with me on the plane

Boarding was chaotic and disorganized, and the foot rest to my seat was broken. But the food was good and the flight attendants were kind and attentive.

Horrible old filthy airplane with brooking seat and entertainment system

Flight was supposed to take off Saturday at noon. Bumped for unknown reasons until 2 am, then 9 am, then noon, then we don’t know. Not weather related. Dismal and non existent customer service. No 24/7 relations. Couldn’t get my bag back to attempt to get on another flight until 5pm Saturday. Will never take this airline again!

I had a great experience with EGYPTAIR. They offered me to check in my handbag which made it very easy since I use a cane. Thank you to EGYPTAIR crew for making sure everyone is receiving the right services.
