What is the near spot to get from to Djibouti, by plane?

I would like to travel to Djibouti during my vacation next month. I plan to visit several countries in the Gulf Region and then spend few days, maybe even a week in Djibouti. What is the near spot to get from to Djibouti, by plane? I may go to Europe prior to my visit to Djibouti.

Well, it depends on where you are planning to go before that. I visited several countries in the region last year and ended up in Yemen before I flew to Djibouti. You have a good connection between Saana in Yemen and Djibouti. Yemen Airways is operating that line and has four regular flights.

I can tell you about the flights from Paris to Djibouti. That is not exactly “near” but if you are making plans to travel to Europe first you may consider flying from Paris to Djibouti afterwards. There are several airlines that operate that route: Yemenia, Kenya, Ethiopian, KLM, Air France, Daallo. Also, Kenya Airways has a good flight schedule and service between Ethiopia and Djibouti. They are cheaper than Ethiopian Airlines and fly there 6 days a week.
