    Flights to the Seychelles

  • Finding a cheap flight to the Seychelles isn't easy. The best deals are probably getting a discounted package tour at the low season. Low season only means fewer tourists in the Seychelles, not bad weather.

    There are several choices. From Europe, the cheapest option must be with Aeroflot, which I have seen down to 600 dollars from Scandinavia. If the idea is to go on a safari, Kenya Airways in cooperation with KLM and/or Air Seychelles is a good idea: stopover in Nairobi as part of the deal. I assume a similar solution can be had with South African Airways and Air Seychelles, too, in South Africa. And maybe Air Mauritius. From Australia and Asia, there are connections from Singapore, Mumbai, Maldives and Dubai.

    Otherwise, an independently booked flight with Air France, British Airways, Air Seychelles, Condor and Kenya Airways will come to about 1000 E from most European destinations without stopovers.

    Getting to the Seychelles

  • Kenya Airways and Air Seychelles have flights from Nairobi, but not particularily cheap. Many have dreamt of a flight from Dar to Mahe, but not many enough. You have to go via Nairobi. There are no ferries from Africa. There are flights from Mauritius, and good connections from Johannesburg, too.

  • National airline which was pretty good. Been flying with both British Airways and Air Seychelles to Seychlles and didn't see any difefrences except for tv sets which are more modern on BA.
    You should visit homepage of Air Seychelles usually they have offers and for price conscious people you can save pretty much this way ;)

    Buses are Cheap and Fun (and, yeah, a bit scary)

  • We took the bus everywhere on Mahe, most every day. The Tata buses are second-handers from India apparently (thanks, Lonely Planet), and are not air conditioned, but don't worry: they careen around fast enough to send cool air through the windows most of the time. The buses cost almost nothing and run quite regularly even on fairly remote roads; we never waited more than ten or fifteen minutes for them. We usually really enjoyed spending time on them, save during rush hour when they were crowded.

  • From the U.S-
    airplane through Europe(Paris, Rome) or
    perhaps through Africa (Kenya).
    From Europe you can take a dirct flight.
    Definitely renting a car- the islands are
    small inaugh for you to cover the whole area easly.

    Absolutely must experience the bus ride from Beau Vallon into Victoria, remember to sit on the right hand side, this way you don't get to see down the cliff!!

    Experience Seychelles with the locals, and it only cost three rupees. The local seychellois are wonderful people, but don't believe in queueing ... so don't be offended if they push in front of you.
