Any other African countries available, or only Tanzania?
Hi Melinda, I didn’t see the discount available for other countries, but it’s definitely work taking a look to see. Both of the link above (for Skyscanner and AirMatrix) can be used with whole month view so you can check out quickly whether or not there are discounted fares available.
Thank you Carissa.
