Best Time to Fly
The best time to fly to the Republic of Congo is during the dry season, which generally runs from May to September. During these months, the weather is more pleasant, with lower humidity and minimal rainfall, making it ideal for travel, sightseeing, and exploring cities like Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire. The dry season also improves road conditions and reduces the likelihood of flight delays caused by heavy rains, which are common during the wet season from October to April. Travelers seeking wildlife experiences in Congo’s national parks, such as Odzala-Kokoua, will also find the dry season more favorable for trekking and spotting animals. For budget-conscious travelers, flying in the shoulder months of May–June or September can offer a balance of good weather and slightly lower airfares compared to peak travel periods.

As a key political and cultural hub, the city is served by Maya-Maya International Airport (BZV), with direct and connecting flights from major African and European gateways. Whether you’re traveling for business in the bustling city center, exploring the serene Basilique Sainte-Anne, or using Brazzaville as a gateway to the rainforests and wildlife of the north, securing your flight is the first step to an unforgettable Congolese journey. Discover a city of contrasts, where wide boulevards meet lively markets and the rhythmic sounds of Congolese rumba fill the air.
