Booking air tickets from London to Entebbe is simple with Travelapp, which compares direct and connecting airfares from London Gatwick (LGW) and London Heathrow (LHR) to Entebbe International Airport (EBB), the gateway to Kampala and the rest of Uganda. Uganda Airlines runs the only direct flight between the UK and Uganda, flying from Gatwick four times a week on its Airbus A330-800neo, with a flight time of around 9 hours. One-stop options via Nairobi, Addis Ababa, Brussels, Doha and Dubai add more choice for Uganda's UK diaspora, business travellers and gorilla-trekking holidaymakers.
Air ticket prices from London to Entebbe peak in December, when many families travel home for Christmas, and rise again at Easter and in the UK summer holidays, which overlap with Uganda's main dry-season safari months of June to September. With the direct service running on set days, the best-value direct seats on busy dates go early, while connecting airfares can be cheaper but take longer. Travelapp's +/− 3 days flexible date search compares a full week of London to Entebbe airfares across direct and one-stop options.
