FAQs - booking Malawi flights

  • Which airport should I fly into to get to Liwande National Park?

    Liwande National Park is located between the capital city, Lilongwe, and the country’s second city, Blantyre. The journey by car from Lilongwe Airport takes nearly 5h, whilst the drive from Blantyre Airport is just under 4h, so flying into Blantyre would be more convenient if you want to avoid a longer drive. However, flights to Lilongwe are generally more frequent, shorter in duration and also slightly cheaper.

  • Which airlines operate direct flights from London to Malawi?

    Unfortunately, there are currently no direct flights available from London to Malawi. However, Kenya Airways operate the quickest flight at 13h 25min from Heathrow to Lilongwe International, including a 2h 40min stopover in Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO). Ethiopian Air services the same route with a 2h 40min stopover in Addis Ababa Bole Airport (ADD), taking 14h 25min in total. Flights to Blantyre Chileka International with Ethiopian Air have two stopovers in Addis Ababa (2h 40min) and Lilongwe (3h 20min) with a total flight time of 18h 25min.

Top tips for finding a cheap flight from London Heathrow Airport to Malawi

  • Morning departure is around 10% cheaper than an evening flight, on average*.
  • If you’re looking for cheap flights to Malawi from London, check out flying with Kenya Airways from London Heathrow Airport (LHR) to Lilongwe International Airport (LLW). Alternatively, Ethiopian Air operates a regular service from Heathrow to Blantyre Chileka International Airport (BLZ) at slightly higher rates.
  • US Dollars are widely accepted as currency in some parts of Malawi, so it’s worth making sure you have some of the local currency – the Malawian Kwacha – and US Dollars to hand. Just keep some US Dollars aside when leaving the country as each passenger has to pay a $30 (around £22) international departure tax at the airport.
  • For UK citizens flying to Malawi, you must hold a passport that is valid for at least 6 months after you arrive in the country. You also have to apply for a travel visa at origin before your travel dates. You can start your application by contacting the Malawi High Commission in London.
  • If you want to get to Heathrow Airport from central London, take advantage of the excellent service provided by the Heathrow Express Train. The journey only takes around 15min from Paddington Station, and you can buy your tickets online for as little as £5.50 if you book three months in advance.
  • If you are travelling with children, you can take advantage of the children’s play areas available at both London Heathrow and London Gatwick airports while you’re waiting for your flight to depart. Once you are through security, you can find them in the departure lounges of Terminals 2-5 at Heathrow and in Gatwick’s North and South Terminals.

The flight was again delayed for more then 2 hours with some lousy explanation regarding the reason of the delay. Although the flight was delayed for more than 2 hours, no refreshments were offered (according to EU regulations). Last 4 flights on KLM - always at least 2 hrs late. So be prepared that you cannot plan anything with KLM.

So be prepared that you cannot plan anything with KLM.

We left one hour late because of technical difficulties. The economy comfort seats are great for the price. The crew was mediocre, they do not provide a pleasant experience, they just deliver food and drinks and give orders, not very amicable, no service and hospitality focus.

no issues at all... Kudos to the food. This time was really really good

One of the vstewardeses wanted to bump me of the plane for absolutely nothing. There is CCTV in the plane ans everything can be verified. Very disappointing , you all will see, o other 5 years and the passangers who does not smile to flight attendent will be bumped off...

It was nice to be on a legacy airline, people try at least.

I travel frequently. The flight was late again... KLM should really try and be on time

The flight itself it was great nice food the crew were very nice and helpful, Checking in from Birmingham wasn't great long queues for bag dropped, And I had my hand luggage case taken away from me even though I requested to have it with me as I had breakables items. I was told I can not because of the length of the flight with no explanation at all no options was given for me to take my fragile items out of my case it was taken away with hold buggage I find the staff member who was checking me in very unpleasant !! Can we please be advise if the rules have changed about the the carry on hand luggage it will be easier to be advise on booking your tickect if we not allowed to take the hand luggage with me. Overall I had a good flight .

The food quality is poor. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The entertainment program was limited. I experienced a delay of 30 minutes due to two issues. Passenger luggage had to be removed and there was a technical issue with the stairs not detaching from the aircraft. The pilot managed to compensate and we arrived only 15 minutes later. The luggage at Dubai airport was very slow. I waited over an hour.

I requested wheel chair assistance , it was confirmed via email that inwoood get it but I didn’t get it . The last leg of my trip to Nigeria was the worst.

Amazing KLM service and brilliant economy comfort seats. Well worth the extra.

Choice of Vegetarian Food in Economy class needs overhaul improvement

The gate was changed at the very last moment and no one informed us. The flight was one hour late and the screen broken, the remote control not working. One toilet was out of order . the other toilets were also not totally functioning, because the washbasin was plugged and the water couldn't flow away.

The food could be better, the beef was quite tough. The crew were friendly and helpful on this flight, which has not being my experience on other Ethiopian flights.

The flight was one hour late. The food is mediocre and the screen was broken

it was a nice tripe but they need to work on the serving of soda,they should be abled to serve cain soda not on cup.At least each passenger should be entitled to one cain of soda not serving on cup.thanks.

The entertainment (movies) blockbuster and classics never change. I am a frequent Ethiopian flyer and this should be addressed. Not much changed from my summer flight and my December flight. It is annoying - surely you can update the selections more often. Same with food options. It becomes extremely boring to be offered the same exact meals from Washington to Addis to Maputo every trip, each time. AS

Entertainment was very poor. Couldn’t watch anything. Ear pieces were the wrong type .

Food was horrible. Our flight was not comfortable due to turbulence, seats was not comfortable, Very tight barely can not move anywhere.

The wifi service was really poor I try to use it the service was extremely poor if that could be improved that will go a long way

Hot, uncomfortable and very rough take off and landing. Very regrettable.

Paid an extra USD 100 for so-called Comfort seats. All of these (the bulkhead seats) had parents with babies and infants who were screaming much of the time. One mother even decided to change nappies on the seat. This was anything but comfort!

Good flight. Paid for seats sat the frront section of the economy. Better than rear cabin.

Flight was delayed for 9 hours. We finally arrived ved at 0435hrs instead of 1950hrs the previous day. No compensation was provided.

Apart from delay of 3 hrs in Nairobi for onward flight to Dar all fine. Looked like operational issues caused it.

It has been 1 week since arriving at my destination and I still have not recieved my kite surfing bags. Office will not communicate properly on location or when my bags will arrive. No advice on what to do on luggage that has not arrived in over a week. Simply not happy with Kenya airways at the moment.

Excellent. They canceled our flight & put us up for the night. Then upgraded us. We are impressed

On a long flight us customers need more rehydration by the crew. Some of us have water bottles but no crew is coming around to offer water. I’m not saying issue us all with plastic water bottles.

The flight staff were not very kind. I went back to get a drink, 4 of them back there chatting. They all looked at me continued to talk then they started doing stuff and one finally asked after I was standing there awhile what I needed. This happened multiple times. The movies were not the great and seemed dated. My seat squeaked every time I moved and it moved around a bit.

My flight from Nairobi to nyc. My seat made noise and moved around. The two toilets in the back didn’t work well cause you didn’t know if someone was in there cause the light didn’t work. The bathroom doors didn’t lock well either, so I walked in on someone. The crew wasn’t quick or super helpful. When I went to get something they were chatting and they would look at me, continue on with their conversation and finally I would interrupt to get a drink.

The flight attendants on this flight were incredible! One even gave me her own dinner when my special meal order wasn’t transferred due to a flight delay! She insisted and I was so grateful. That is going above and beyond! The issue I had with the flight was with Lufthansa support. I missed my connection due to a flight delay and they wouldn’t rebook online, only in person. This took a lot of time and visits to the airport waiting for a Lufthansa agent to arrive 5 hours later than posted and almost paying full-fare price for the new flights and refusal to add my special meal orders. It made for a challenging journey home and I didn’t feel valued as a customer.
