Flying from Kigali
Home of the incredibly rare and beautiful mountain gorilla, and known as the ‘Land of a Thousand Hills’, Rwanda is one of Africa’s best kept travel secrets. This beautiful region is home to some of the rarest wildlife on the planet, and is A vibrant, energetic place that welcomes both leisure and business travellers, Kigali has now become quite a busy travel hub , and the city’ airport efficiently caters for thousands of passengers travelling to and from Kigali.
Transportation and parking
The airport is located just over three miles from the centre of the business district, so it’s incredibly convenient for business travellers flying out of the country onto other international destinations.
The easiest way to get to the airport from the main city of Kigali is by taxi. Official metered taxis can be booked through your hotel reception or concierge service. It is advisable pre-book in advance and agree the fare before you start your journey.
Parking at the airport is very limited, so it is best to make alternative parking arrangements away from the airport, and then reach the airport via taxi.
At the airport
Passengers flying from Kigali with Qatar Airways depart from the main passenger terminal Departures area. There are eight check-in desks and three gates, so although numbers are low at the airport it can get a little congested during peak travel times. Security is also very tight, so allow around an hour and a half to two hours to check-in and clear security checks.
Facilities and amenities

Retail outlets include duty free shops, gift shops selling souvenirs and trinkets, and a chemist. Other shops provide travel essentials, books and magazines. A VIP lounge offers First and Business Class travellers a calm and comfortable waiting area, and the airport also has several ATMs and a Bureau de Change.

Tourist attractions
Incheon’s Chinatown is the only official Chinatown in South Korea, and is right next to Liberty Park, a stunning open space full of tranquil corners where you can escape the noise and energy of the city.
Incheon is a very modern city, and many of its attractions are relatively new. For a fantastic view of the city head to the North Asia Trade Tower in the heart of the rapidly expanding Songdo International City. For a more traditional flavour, the Incheon Islands are a great escape from the bright lights, and life here is more sedate.

Back in the city, the Arts Centre is an arts and entertainment venue located in Guwol-dong, with frequent performances of traditional Korean plays, dancing and theatre. The Centre sits in the middle of a thriving retail district too, making it convenient for shopping and browsing.
