What determines the price between Addis Ababa and Dar Es Salaam? Primarily: flight distance and typical jet-stream winds, fuel costs across the regions you cross, and the handling and parking fees charged at each airport. We confirm everything against real-time aircraft availability. International routing adds overflight permits and customs clearance to the final figure.
Both cities are served by several airports, giving flexibility on slots and routing:
Addis Ababa, Ethiopia: Addis Ababa Bole International Airport and Harar Meda Airport.
Dar Es Salaam, Tanzania: Julius Nyerere International Airport.
| Addis Ababa Bole International Airport | Julius Nyerere International Airport | |
|---|---|---|
| Code | HAAB / ADD | HTDA / DAR |
| Longest hard runway | 12,467 ft | 9,843 ft |
| Surface | Asphalt | Asphalt |
| Field elevation | 7,630 ft | 182 ft |
Addis Ababa Bole International Airport is at 7,630 ft, high enough to reduce performance on a warm day; your operator may limit payload on departure.
15 of the 16 aircraft we quote for Addis Ababa to Dar Es Salaam use both airfields and fly it non-stop. The exception is the Embraer Phenom 100EV, 24 km short after reserves on a 1,763 km leg — it would need a fuel stop. Addis Ababa Bole International Airport has 12,467 ft and Julius Nyerere International Airport 9,843 ft, both comfortably beyond the 6,000 ft the largest types here need, so field length is not what decides the aircraft on this route — cabin size and range are.
Alternates within range: Harar Meda Airport (5,940 ft, 37 km) · African Union Heliport
