    You can typically expect round-trip fares to Somalia to cost from $1,460 to $2,240, based on KAYAK data from the past 12 months.

  • What cabin classes are available on flights to Somalia?

    On flights to Somalia you can book Economy Class or Business Class.

  • What are my options if I come from the Midwestern United States region?

    When coming from the Midwestern region, consider taking your flight from Cleveland International Airport (CLE). CLE provides two and three-stop flights to HGA, with layovers in Detroit, Chicago, and Addis Ababa. Delta, United, and Ethiopian Airlines provide them.

  • What child seat laws do I need to know when renting a car in Somalia?

    Even if child seat laws aren't strictly enforced, it's important to keep these safety tips in mind. If you are travelling with a child under the age of 7, you must use a booster seat. This is because the vehicle's car seat belts ensure safety in an emergency. The seats can be rear facing or facing forward, depending on your preference. However, there are no front seat restrictions in the country. Children over the age of 12 can sit in any part of the vehicle and use the restraint system.

  • What are the passport and Visa requirements for flights to Somalia?

    A visa is required for flights from the US to Somaliland. You must also have a passport whose validity exceeds the entire visit to Somalia and at least six months from the entry date. The passport must have at least one blank page for the entry stamp. You can opt for tourist visas if you wish to stay for less than three months.

  • Are there direct flights from the United States to Somalia?

    Unfortunately, there are no direct flights from the United States to Somalia. However, you can get one-stop flights from Philadelphia International Airport to Hargeisa. You can also get on two-stop or one-stop flights from major airports, including JFK, MIA, PHL, and ATL. BOS also provides one-stop flights to MQK by Turkish Airlines.

  • How do I get to Jazeera Beach from the United States?

    When traveling from the United States, you must fly to Mogadishu's MGQ airport. You can take a taxi to the city center upon arrival at the airport. From the city center, Jazeera Beach lies about four miles from the beach. You can opt for public transport or private transfers. If arriving at Bosaso or Hargeisa Airport, you can take the bus or flight. However, buses are less reliable. Therefore, the best alternative would be to take a local flight to MQK, as it is the closest airport to Jazeera Beach.

  • Which is the best way of getting to Merca from the United States?

    It is important to note that public transport is not easy to find in Somalia. Therefore, the best way of getting around Somalia would be by flight. If you take flights to MGQ, you will not need another flight. You can take buses from the airport to Merca, which lies about 45 miles away. Alternatively, you can take flights to Hargeisa or Bosaso from the United States. From the cities, proceed to take flights to MGQ. Once at the airport, you can opt for buses to Merca from the city upon arrival.

We never fly any other atrline if Emirate flights are available. In all aspects we rank it the best.

Service was great. Food was perfect. My mom needed a wheelchair and I was worried that I will miss the connecting flight. Emirates ground staff and wheelchair staff ensured we get to our gate on time.

Although lauded as a superior carrier, I found nothing out of the ordinary about the flight. Even in the AirBus 380, there wasn't much space in economy - especially when the seat in front was reclined. Admittedly, the toilet was more spacious than I've ever seen on an airplane, but the ill-fitting divider between the cubicles left a visible slit that was quite disconcerting. The crew were ok, but they were clearly "just doing their job." There was little enthusiasm - although given the number of the passengers, I'm not surprised they were jaded. I'd fly Emirates again, but I don't hold them above other carriers.

Boarding in New York was smooth and well organized. However, the boarding process in Dubai was less convenient. Passengers were asked to board an hour before departure, but after that we had to wait in another area that did not have enough seating capacity. To make matters worse, the flight was officially delayed by an hour, followed by an additional 45-minute delay while on the aircraft. The food was excellent and exceeded expectations. Seating comfort was decent for Economy Class, and considering the fare category, I have no major complaints. The entertainment system was outstanding. Being able to watch a FIFA match live during the flight was a completely new and enjoyable experience for me, making the journey much more engaging.

The flight was literally cancelled by emirates and you sent me to a scammer website of Underpricer.com for the tickets who still has not provided a refund for one ticket. Kayak has gone seriously downhill. If you are going to redirect people to a site then ensure they are reputable and not untrustworthy scammers. Am never using kayak again after this experience. And update your algorithm or whatever so you don’t send out auto emails checking on flight experience of cancelled flights due a literal WAR!! also I have complained about underpricer and nothing from kayak. So disappointing

Difficult to find some food option for gluten and dairy allergy. May be a fruit salad would be better

What a great trip . From check in to the upgrade we received a big shout out to Cleverson who was able to help us navigate the whole process super patient and was just one of the best customer service experiences we received in a very long time . The amazing staff on the flight who went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable amazing food and service if you have te opportunity to upgrade it's a must and well worth it.

I love to travel again and again in Emirates. Keep up the good work.

Very good from the beginning to the end. Amazing experience

I liked the newer aircraft CRJ-550 since it had WIFI and the seats are more spacious.

When getting to our seats a blanket, headphones and pillow where there already. The food was very good and plentiful. I liked when they came around w/hot towels to freshen up with. Slippers, socks and an eye mask was a nice surprise. My husband and I have mobility issues and the transporters were absolutely wonderful and helpful w/the wheelchairs at each stop. Getting from one gate to the next they were a blessing.

The taxi drivers are very rude. Didn’t wait. They said you come in 5minutes or I leave. Did not leave any messages on front desk and they left. We have to hire new cabs in turkey.

Everything was good except for the seating arrangements. We could not get seats to be seated together with my wife. We’re unfortunately.

My first time in business class The in flt staff was outstanding in every aspect of service, the food was amazing, the business seat space made the 11 hour journey easy peazy

It was good, but always can be better. The airplane was old.

I always travel on Turkish Airlines but seriously I am I am considering to change because this is not the first time that the flight attendant are rude and they dont help. I asked for cold water with ice 5 times and I got water with no ice and this is not the first time to ask for something and you dont get it. Also I noticed this behavior only towards people who are not turkish.

There were not enough extra leg room options to purchase. Also the seat Infront of mine was broken and the gentleman literally laid back into my lap for the whole trip. This was the most uncomfortable trip I have ever been on

A lot of things can be done to improve in flight experience

Average at every level . Poor entertainment selection. Boarding was very poor and disorganized. Flight was late by one hour .

Spent over $20k on for business class tickets from DFW. They used a very old Boeing 777 with old Business class cabin which was unclean and stained seats. On a route they normally operate the modern Boeing 787. The cabin heat was set to hot for 11 hours. On the IST LHE route the business class experience got even worse. They operate an even older Airbus A330 where trip was falling apart, seat recline did not operate and the whole experience left us hugely disappointed. Next time we likely will shift to better quality product which stands up to their hype. Turkish need to relook at their fleet plans and not use their worst assets of perceived week markets such as Pakistan.

We flew with Qatar Airlines before (2021) , the service was much better than this time, the flight attendants were not very friendly and cheerful . One of the attendants asked the person setting next to me (by the window) are you Mr. ……, if you may need any thing to let her know . I asked for a dinner meal with beef , she said, we are out, only chicken is available, then she said wait I may get you one with beef, she came back and gave me chicken. Then she gave the gentleman next to me the beef meal . The bathrooms were left dirty and full of overfilled paper tissues, urine every where on the floor and on the toilet seat . Qatar Airways has an excellent reputation and deserves better . Thank you 🙏

Horrible horrible plane for such a long flight. I thought Qatar was a reputable airline. Was proven so wrong. Never again…:-(

Qatar Airways has consistently set a standard in my mind that very few airlines manage to sustain, and once again, this journey in Economy Class lived up to that expectation. As an avid globetrotter who travels extensively for work, I experience many airlines, service cultures, and levels of hospitality. Yet there is something reassuringly consistent about Qatar Airways. It is not simply the onboard service, but the entire experience: the professionalism, courtesy, warmth, attentiveness, and genuine sense of hospitality. The cabin crew are exceptionally well trained, composed, aligned, and polished in their delivery, yet their interactions rarely feel mechanical. They remain remarkably courteous while retaining a genuine human warmth and an apparent eagerness to assist. On almost every Qatar journey, there are individual crew members who somehow manage to stand out and make the experience even more memorable. What I value most is the consistency. Qatar Airways has established a certain benchmark of expectation for me and, over many journeys, has never underdelivered against it. There is a sense of confidence and ease that comes with boarding a Qatar flight because I know the overall experience will be thoughtfully delivered. For someone who spends a considerable amount of time travelling, that peace of mind matters enormously. Qatar Airways remains one of the airlines I genuinely enjoy flying, not because of any single aspect of the service, but because of the complete package and the remarkable consistency with which it is delivered. The only disappointment on this occasion was that my luggage did not arrive with me at my final destination in Kolkata (CCU), following my journey from Seattle (SEA) via Doha (DOH). Unfortunately, the baggage was delayed in Doha. A baggage exception report is already on file with the local airport team in CCU. Given the confidence Qatar Airways has built with me over the years, I remain optimistic that they will once again live up to that expectation, work their magic, and reunite me with my luggage within the next 24 hours. Looking forward to a swift resolution and, notwithstanding this final hiccup, another thoroughly enjoyable Qatar Airways journey.

Mediocre movies Too cold Didn’t have extra blankets Check in was too long (60-70 min coming 3 hours early) Breakfast was terrible Great WiFi however And smooth ride Dinner was decent

Really good food and service. Qatar Airways is again and again provided an exceptional experience.

Extremely uncomfortable seats with very little cushioning, unable to recline enough to sleep comfortably on this 13 hour overnight flight. My body was in pain by the end.

When we checked in at the Siem Reap Airport in Cambodia, we were only given three boarding passes and told that we would have to check in with American when we arrived in Boston. This was a source of stress for us. After we landed in Boston, we had a long passage from Terminal E to Terminal B (American Airline ticketing counter). Because the electronic ticketing kiosks for check-in would not recognize our Confirmation Code, we had to wait for an hour in a long line where only two AA reps were taking care of Special Services passengers. In many years of both business and recreational travel, I have never had this experience. I would expect more from AA being in partnership with other airlines to do a better job with this.

Our experience on the Doha to Hyderabad segment was extremely stressful due to prolonged delays and a lack of clear communication from the airline. We were traveling as a family, including children, and the uncertainty around timing and next steps caused significant distress. There was very little proactive information provided during the delay, and we were not given clear written explanations about what was happening or how long it might take. This made it difficult to manage the situation, especially while caring for children in a transit environment. In addition, one member of our party was ultimately unable to continue travel, which added to the emotional strain and disruption of the trip. Overall, the experience highlighted gaps in communication, customer care, and handling of unexpected situations. We are sharing this feedback so that future passengers, especially families, are supported with clearer communication and better assistance during irregular operations.

The seat cushions are absolutely lacking, not sure if they know the passengers are traveling for 14 hours straight, but the padding made our back and butt ache like crazy. The entertainment console had its own problems, either the headphone jack wasn't working or the power outlet via usb or ac outlet was not working. Not to mention the seat handles were not adjustable in some planes in the middle or on the aisle. Qatar/Indigo may be operating a very old fleet of planes to make as much profit as possible, but passengers may not be following them for long, should this treatment of its customers continue. Qatar/Indigo, wake up and do it right by your customers, or they may not be your customers anymore.

It would help id flight crew were not rude and showed some courtesy. They were shouting at passengers and yelling instructions as if we were school children at lunch cafeteria!!

The seat was wet when I came in. Food was just something. And during a whole 11 to 12 hours in the airplane NO WIFI. Was is the point to buy a business ticket if you can be connected to your relatives and your company. Ethiopian used to do that to theirs customers, TECHNICAL ISSUE, WE ARE SORRY….. I am a gold customer for ET. It is very disappointed!

It was a great experience for my first time flying with this airline. I will be flying with them a lot more now. Plane crew was amazing.

The flight was very smooth, however, the quality of food was mediocre.

The TV wasn't working No music for the whole flight from JFK to LOS It was too burring.

Flight was delayed by two hours. This really messed things up because I missed my connecting flight in Addis. I had a meeting in Entebbe which was scrapped because my flight from Addis landed later in the day.

I paid for internet that did not work and had to pay more to have it

The crew was unfriendly and very rude to name a few (Helina). I felt unsafe due to most of the cabinets were open while on flight. All in all the flight was ok, but the crew needed more training on customer service most of all for international flights.

Delay not posted, only departure time listed- not boarding time. We left an hour late and arrived 45 min late. Restrooms had backed up sinks and toilets not flushed ) passenger error). Lots of screen for entertainment didn’t work. But we arrived with our luggage

The plane was old and the luggage racks above us were visibly shaking during turbulence. Water was dripping on our heads during landing. Our flight was over 2 hours late departing but we were not updated or told what to expect as the screen at the gate continued to read “on time”

Check in took over an hour because printer was not working. Attendant did not know how to give free layover Addis Ababa hotel vouchers or update frequent flyer number. After repeated attempts, got voucher emailed. However hotel wanted printed voucher hence more delay. Bus time from hotel back to airport was printed 4:50 hours, but hotel reception called at 3 pm saying bus will leave at 4 pm. Then hotel reception called again saying 4:15 pm. We rushed at 4:15 pm and bus was not ready until 4:40 pm. Many audio outlets were not working in planes.
