I’m still a long way from booking flights for my August 2026 trip to Zimbabwe. But that doesn’t keep me from looking at flights.

Kenya Airways keeps popping up as the cheapest option. I’ll be flying out of Dulles and can go direct to Nairobi and then on to Harare. Looking as far into 2026 as I can it is consistently running $1500-1800 cheaper than Emirates in business class. Qatar is another couple thousand above that.

I hadn’t heard of anyone flying through Nairobi with guns. The Kenya Airways website says it is doable but I’m checking to see if anyone has personal experience doing it or if it isn’t worth even considering.

Thanks in advance.
 
Honestly why and I wouldn't.....you asked @TRAVEL EXPRESS for their opinion.....you want to fly business just bite the bullet and go with an airline that is used to carrying firearms....even if not flying business....simple

Thank you that’s why I’m asking. I don’t know if Kenya Airways regularly carries hunters with guns.

I doubt they have a clue....never heard of anyone flying via Nairobi to hunt in southern African countries.....

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!

X5i scope is perfect - thanks for an easy transaction! Buy with confidence.
Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA
