Flights to Dakar

Fares to Dakar and beyond, quoted by a specialist.

Fly into Dakar and you land at Blaise Diagne International Airport (DSS). This page is about the city: the airport, the way into town, and the best time to go. For entry rules and the wider country, see the Senegal links at the end of this page.

From the airport to Dakar

The airport is roughly 45 km from central Dakar, east of the city, so allow generous time for the transfer. Arrange a taxi or private pickup in advance.

Blaise Diagne replaced the older Léopold Sédar Senghor airport as the main international airport.

Flying to Dakar: quick answers.

How do I find cheap flights to Dakar?

Tell us your route and dates, and a specialist compares fares across airlines, nearby dates and connecting routes for your trip to Dakar, then replies with a quote, often the same day. Being flexible by a few days, and avoiding the busiest weeks, usually gives the most options.

When are flights to Dakar cheapest?

The drier months, roughly November to May, are the most comfortable. The rainy season runs from about July to October. Fares change daily, so there is no single best date. A specialist checks the days either side of yours.

Can I get a one-way or round-trip flight to Dakar?

Yes. We quote round-trip, one-way and multi-city trips to Dakar. A round trip is often the simplest on international routes, but it is worth asking us to price both, especially if your return date is open.

Can I pay for my flight to Dakar over time?

On eligible bookings you can choose to pay in monthly installments at checkout. The provider decides eligibility and shows the exact terms before you agree, and a credit check may apply.

Do you compare prices and show flight deals for Dakar?

A TravelSource specialist compares fares for your exact route and dates rather than showing one “from” price, because fares to Dakar change with the season and the day of the week. We can also add a stay, a car or an airport transfer to the same quote.

Can my team or family pay over time for Dakar?

On eligible bookings you can pay in monthly installments through Affirm. Every traveler pays for their own seat, and Affirm shows the terms at checkout. A credit check may apply.

Do you arrange hotels, cars and transfers in Dakar?

Yes. Add stays, cars, transfers or travel cover when you request your quote and our travel desk arranges everything together.
