Brussels Airlines is pleased to announce a new destination in its long-haul network: Kilimanjaro, Tanzania. As of June 3, 2026, Kilimanjaro will be served twice a week. Kilimanjaro is the perfect destination for leisure travelers looking to explore sub-Saharan Africa and further strengthens Brussels Airlines’ position as the leading carrier for the region.
With the addition of Kilimanjaro, Brussels Airlines’ network in sub-Saharan Africa will grow to 18 destinations. It will be the fifth destination in East Africa, after Entebbe (Uganda), Kigali (Rwanda), Bujumbura (Burundi), and Nairobi (Kenya).
Kilimanjaro is not only the perfect gateway to the world-famous Mount Kilimanjaro, Africa’s highest peak, but also provides easy access to the Serengeti National Park and the Ngorongoro Conservation Area, both UNESCO World Heritage sites.
“Sub-Saharan Africa is our second home, and we’re happy to add an attractive destination to our network on this beautiful continent. Tanzania is a top destination for safaris, and we’re proud to contribute to the local economy by connecting Kilimanjaro to Brussels and beyond.”
– Dorothea von Boxberg, CEO, Brussels Airlines
