About this route
Arusha Airport (ARK) is the small airport on the west side of town for bush flights to the Serengeti and flights to Zanzibar. It is not Kilimanjaro International — the two are about an hour apart, and mixing them up is a common, expensive mistake.
- Flying in from the Serengeti or Zanzibar? Send the flight and we meet the plane.
- Check which airport your ticket says: ARK (Arusha) or JRO (Kilimanjaro).
