Flights to Namibia
Find your flight to Namibia and touch down in a world of epic, untouched landscapes. As your gateway to the soul-stirring beauty of Southern Africa, flying to Namibia connects you to the towering red dunes of Sossusvlei, the wildlife-rich Etosha National Park, and the dramatic Skeleton Coast. Major airlines offer routes into Windhoek’s Hosea Kutako International Airport (WDH), with convenient connections from Europe, South Africa, and neighboring countries. Whether you seek a self-drive desert adventure, a luxury safari, or a coastal retreat, securing your flights to Namibia is the first step toward an unforgettable journey into vast, open spaces and stark, breathtaking beauty.
Major Airports & Gateways
Windhoek (WDH): Located about 45 km east of Windhoek, it serves as Namibia’s primary gateway for international flights, handling most long-haul and regional connections from Africa and Europe.
Other Airports: ERS (Eros Airport – Windhoek), LUD (Lüderitz), Walvis Bay (WVB) and KAT (Katima Mulilo/Mpacha) have little or no direct international service from the U.S.; most travelers fly into Windhoek (WDH) and connect onward domestically within Namibia.
Best Time to Fly
The best time to fly to Namibia largely depends on the experience you seek, but the optimal window for general travel and wildlife viewing is during the dry season, from May to October. During these months, the weather is pleasantly mild with sunny days and cool nights, and sparse vegetation draws incredible concentrations of animals to permanent waterholes, making for exceptional safari viewing, particularly in Etosha National Park. While this is the peak tourist season, the clear skies and minimal rainfall also provide perfect conditions for exploring the iconic dunes of Sossusvlei and the haunting Skeleton Coast. For those looking to avoid the highest prices and crowds while still enjoying good weather, the shoulder months of April and early May or late October and November offer a compelling balance, with landscapes briefly transformed by green foliage. The wet season, from December to March, brings lush scenery, migratory birdlife, and the chance to see newborn animals, but frequent afternoon showers, high heat, and more challenging road conditions make it a season best suited for seasoned travelers and photographers chasing dramatic skies.
