Hi all - we are due to land at NBO at 05:00 on the LHR-NBO Air Kenya flight. We then have a Cessna charter on Grumeti air taking us NBO to Tanzania at 07:00. We will have checked bags, and these are two separate tickets. I have have received very mixed answers as to what this transfer will look like:
  • Some have said we will *not* need a Kenyan ETA, though I am worried about being allowed on the flight in London without it, and also have heard we need to enter Kenya to collect our luggage.
  • Assuming we get to the international departures area, how will we find our Grumeti Air charter since they dont' regularly operate out of there? Will they assign a gate to our little flight, or do we just call them or something? I have asked the operator and they don't really seem to know.
  • If we are in the int'l departure area, it looks like the best option for a nice breakfast is the Simba lounge for ~$40 per person, is that right? Or is there a restaurant we could access that has a good breakfast?
Thanks so much
