FAQs - booking Zimbabwe flights

  • What currency is used in Zimbabwe?

    The Zimbabwean dollar has been suspended and replaced with RTGS dollars and the US dollar. You can exchange other currencies for RTGS dollars in Zimbabwe. It might be a good idea to bring US dollars to Zimbabwe, as the country can experience a shortage of cash. RTGS dollars are not worth anything outside Zimbabwe, so if you are given bond notes as change, make sure to spend them all before leaving. RTGS and US dollars both use the symbol $ in Zimbabwe, so do check if the price is quoted in RTGS or US dollar before paying.

  • How can I get to Mana Pools National Park?

    The easy way to go to Mana Pools National Park is to get a flight to Harare or Victoria Falls (VFA) airports and arrange a transfer with a tour operator beforehand, but this can be expensive. If you want to travel on your own, you must arrange a 4x4 and access with a vehicle is only allowed during dry season.

  • How can I get to Hwange National Park?

    To get to Hwange National Park, you should fly into Victoria Falls airport. From there you can charter private flights, arrange for road transfers or drive yourself. You need a 4x4 to reach some parts of the park.

  • What is the KAZA UniVisa and why do I need it?

    The KAZA Univisa allows you to travel between Zimbabwe and Zambia and take day trips into Botswana. It costs around 50 USD (40 GBP) and is valid for 30 days. Sometimes, when visiting a tourist attraction, you may need to cross the border, for example at Victoria Falls, as there are parts that belong to Zambia and parts that belong to Zimbabwe.

  • What currency exchange facilities are there at Robert Mugabe International Airport?

    The currencies in Zimbabwe are the Real Time Gross Settlement or the US dollar. Worry not if flying to Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport, as you will get access to currency exchange facilities. There are banks and foreign exchange points, easily accessible at the arrival areas and the departing terminal. Alternatively, you can withdraw your money at the airport and opt for exchange in other parts of Zimbabwe, as the rates may be slightly lower.

  • I'm travelling to Zimbabwe to visit Victoria Falls. Where should I fly to?

    If you are flying to Zimbabwe for Victoria Falls, consider flying to Victoria Falls Airport (VFA), which is approximately 11 miles (18 km) from the falls. Taxis are an easy and fast transit option accessible within the airport terminal, and a quick route is via A8, arriving at Victoria Falls in about 18min.

  • How does KAYAK find such low prices on flights from the United Kingdom to Zimbabwe?

Top tips for finding cheap flights to Zimbabwe

  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Zimbabwe flight deals.
  • There are rarely direct flights to Zimbabwe from the UK. The majority of routes involve flying to Johannesburg (South Africa) and then require a connecting flight to Harare, Victoria Falls or Bulawayo. Harare (HRE) is the easiest airport to fly into as it is serviced by many airlines.
  • Preferably, you should allow 3-5h of transit time in Johannesburg, so that you have ample time to catch your connecting flight. Transiting in Johannesburg is rather easy; simply follow the signs for ‘International Transit’. The flight from Johannesburg to Harare takes about 1h 30m.
  • Confirm with your airline(s) whether you have to leave the transit area upon arrival in South Africa. If so, note that you may need to present official documents if you are transiting in South Africa with children (under 18). You may need to present the child’s full unabridged birth certificate upon arrival if the child is travelling only with one parent or without either parent. Sometimes, even accompanied by both parents, a request to see the child’s full unabridged birth certificate may be made, especially if one parent bears a different surname from the child.
  • You should consider flying into Zimbabwe via South Africa. This is usually more affordable and gives you more options to choose from.
  • British citizens will need a visa to enter Zimbabwe. You can either obtain the visa online, at the Zimbabwean Embassy in London or upon arrival in Zimbabwe. The visa usually grants you up to 30 days in Zimbabwe. If you choose to get the visa upon arrival, please bring small change to pay for it. Your passport should have at least six months validity and three empty pages to allow you to enter Zimbabwe and exit via any of the neighbouring countries.
  • To find cheap flights to Zimbabwe, consider flying to Harare Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport (HRE), which is the country’s largest airport. The airport is the central hub connecting you to major cities, including Harare, Chitungwiza, Marondera and Norton. Shuttles and taxis are the primary transit options from the airport to other locations, as public transport is minimal.
  • If travelling with mobility limitations, you can be received by a member of the assistance team at the arrival gates of Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport; they will see you through any transfers and help with your luggage. The airport has mobility facilities too, including wheelchairs and wheelchair-accessible paths. Notify your airline or travel agent at least 48 hours before your flight.
  • Once you arrive at Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport, you can walk to an onsite lounge for a drink, snack or relax before you proceed to your final destination in Zimbabwe. One example is The Lounge, easily accessible on the ground floor of the terminal building.

Sadly I couldn't get the food I requested as it was out. Also, if you don't want to be woken up make sure the crew knows it. My wife was woken on every service.

Sadly I couldn't get the food I requested as it was out. Also, if you don't want to be woken up make sure the crew knows it. My wife was woken on every service.

Three meals on a single flight is disgusting. Even if I reject them all, sleeping is impossible and all that food (especially wasted food) is just antithetical to a pleasant flight experience. People were chucking multiple abandoned trays on the floor in front of my seat.

Fantastic service the managed to locate my checked bag on the plans as re-tagged it for my final destination.

Food was excellent. Leg room in economy, not so good; I’m 6’-1”.

We loved flying with Emirates in business class, the staff were fabulous, going above & beyond

Emirates First Class is always a treat with Caviar and service is always personalised.

The seating is spaced out nicely, The crew could have offer more drinks.

Over - amazing. The aircraft is somewhat old on this route.

Excellent comfort and entertainment. Service poor..Food average with little choice.

Comfort good. Service as usual poor. Cabin temperature as usual too cold, about 15 degrees

Pleasant, relaxed flight. I had 2 seats to myself, which was a bonus. I couldn't find a flight tracker ap so I could know where we were but that's a minor complaint. On the plus side, the passenger announcements did not come through my earphones but were on main speakers only. That was a nice touch.

Flight delayed by 3 hours 45 mins and no explanation given or apology. Rebooked on a flight departing to final destination 48 hrs later and baggage not delivered.

My outbound flight was grounded in Lusaka so we never made it to Paris. DO NOT fly this airline you will be stranded and your plans will be completely disrupted

Inflight entertainment with electronic charging stations can help during a long flight.

The flight was delayed with no notice. No inflight entertainment. Communication is vital in any business.

Poor communication: Flight come directly to kigali , didn’t come via mumbasa. Favouring to Rwandan passenger to move from economic to bussiness class after flight depart. Where they don’t asked other older passenger who need more comfort. Rude staff : chekin airport at Mumbai. Talking in local language (marathi) while serving and no sorry no thank you attitude.

no qatar did noting wrong Kayak messed up my whole vacation . Went early to check in at The Cairo, Egypt airport to find our I had not tickets to board , Kayak and/or Affirm never sent the money for my flight that I paid for and booked. So I had no flight at 12am in a foreign country and I had to scramble and find anther very costly other option just so that could fly home. Fucken horrible experience.

The flight was delayed and one member of the crew was a bit rude. But apart from that all good.

The flight overall was good. The attendants did a good job except that 1 female had too much fragrance on. The other things that made the flight unpleasant were out of the airlines control.

Not sure how we end up with American Airlines instead of Qatar Airways. From Philadelphia to Qatar they boarded us then they asked us to unload. After 30 minutes later they board us again. The inside the plane it was burning hot and we were sweating like crazy. Crew members are absolute rude. The way they served the passengers were horrible. One of the crew members hit my knee with food cart and kept going. I was holding an ice pack for almost 2 hours. I am still with the pain.

Terrible experience resolving missed connection after flight was delayed. 3 hour queue at transit desk, not enough staff, no organisation, worst ever flying experience.

I’ve flown with Qatar multiple times and the service has always been great. Very professional, organized, the food is delicious and plentiful, tons of entertainment.

I had to stay in the airport 15 even with a hotel reservation..i was refused to inter to qatar cuz the hotel was outside the airport. They could have offered a solution. It was really exhausting for me and my family.

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.

They didn't board by zones and it was a free for all. The 16 hour flight was the most excruciating experience of my life and the seats were TINY... with no leg space and my feet were swollen immediately. The food was so bad it was inedible.

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.

Need to do a lot of improvement on service and cleaness

Our first flight was delayed and when we got off that plane, nobody was really helping to direct us to the next gate. It was very frustrating. One staff simply said hurry, which wasn’t helpful. We had to go a long way to get to the next gate. Another issue on the plane itself was the bathrooms were disgusting and filthy and it didn’t seem like anybody was checking on them were cleaning them and it was a long flight. There was urine on the floor and they stunk. Also, the screen in front of my seat did not work, and I tried different headphones and still had no sound. You would think somehow those things are reviewed occasionally for working order.

The flight is packed and it feels like the space per individual has gotten smaller. Excruciating for a 14hr flight.

Forgotten Suite inside of the top compartment but went back to ask and they didn’t leave at the lost and found place. Also the checking in was so horrible. I had multi city and one of the passenger saint have visa go go go Dubai. The Ethiopian airlines never had information about requirement for US permanent resident so couldn’t go to Dubai. And when coming back to US we were told we can not use our Addis to Washington ticket and they forced us to get new ticket. Very horrible experience.

worst was delayed luggage. could see luggage was still in Singapore but they insist I wait till all luggage are unloaded before filing a report. took 2 days to arrive and I had to collect it myself from the airport

The flight itself was fine. The exception is that my luggage was destroyed, and I filed a claim that I haven't heard from anyone.

i send you separate claim of what happens ,I buy ticketed from you and you said that it is confirmed and shall send the ticket in 24 hrs but you did not send and when we go to Ethiopian air line counter they say it is pending and we dont know why ,and we forced to buy another ticket ,and this all because Ethiopian air lines canceled the return flight from Adi Ababa to Amman, please note that we buy all the tickets through your app and hold you responsible for all loss and discomfort.

Im if Ethiopian can allow customers to use their mileage for in flight connexion it will be great.

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

Needs improvement because some of the tvs and charging ports weren’t working

For a long haul flight, the seats were too narrow. Paid for extra legroom but wish I could have paid for width! I was pressed against another person for the whole donation of the flight.

Delayed flight made my day very long, but other than that KQ got me to my destination in good shape.

The nice treatment and lovely pilots who accepted my son inside for a photo.So lovely of them

Got delayed for over 24 hours. Fight was cancelled. Was put up at a nice hotel whose kitchen was unfortunately not prepared for the sudden influx of guests The headphone jacks on the seat were loose and sound kept getting dropped over the headphones. Food was good though. Certain items (Amarula) were not available for purchase over the on-plane duty free. Had been told i would pick my luggage at my final destination*wrong* had to pick it up in JFK and recheck it and then got charged for it**** too tired to argue with the Delta staff on the issue.... after a 15 hr flight.

This one is not bad even it is late, but they apologize and every time they announced the update.

I’m very disappointed for this trip and I will never travel again in this airline. In addition, I don’t recommend to any human being to travel to Kenya Airways. They keep me at Nairobi for 4 days without care. I was at Nairobi from 6 a.m Morning up to 10 a:m Thursday. For that reason, I have trouble for my work and may be I will lose my job. During for those 4 days I didn’t have my medicine, I didn’t have clothes to change because all my clothes were in my checked bags. On Thursday, when I got flight, they don’t even apologize for all consequences I had. During for those 4 days, I learned many things for this airline. It is their system to treat passengers like this because they had hundreds or thousands passengers around Nairobi waiting for their flights after their original flights cancelled. If I lose my job, I planned to file claim to the airline. This is not airline to travel with.

They weight duty free goods at check in and count the weight as carry on luggage. Results : for 4 bottles I had to opay $150. rip off. Be careful to avoid any duty free shopping at Dubai airport

The boarding was fast, the food was great; however, the seats & leg space were tight.

I enjoyed my flight I arrived safe with all my luggage

No complaints just improve on the food service. Provide enough dinner. People are complaining about that.
