Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a visa to visit Zanzibar (ZNZ)?

Many travellers require a visa or e-visa to enter Tanzania (which includes Zanzibar). Visa requirements depend on your nationality — check the Tanzanian government or your airline for up-to-date entry rules before you travel.

What is the best time of year to fly to Zanzibar?

Zanzibar is busiest and sunniest between June and October (dry season). November–March is hot with short rains in April/May. For calmer seas and good diving visibility, consider the shoulder months (May/June, September/October).

How do I get from Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (ZNZ) to my hotel?

Airport transfers are available by hotel shuttle, pre-booked private car, taxis and ride apps in Stone Town. MyFlyYatra can arrange meet-and-greet transfers for seamless arrival service.

Do I need vaccinations before travelling to Zanzibar?

Routine vaccinations should be up to date. Yellow fever vaccination may be required if arriving from a high-risk country; malaria prophylaxis is recommended for many travellers. Check a travel clinic for personalised medical advice well before departure.

What currency is used and can I pay by card in Zanzibar?

The official currency is the Tanzanian Shilling (TZS); US dollars and cards are widely accepted in hotels and tourist areas. Carry some cash for markets, taxis and smaller vendors.

How much baggage allowance do business class passengers get to Zanzibar?

Business class baggage allowances vary by airline — typically higher checked limits plus larger carry-on allowances. Confirm your airline’s policy at booking or on your ticket for precise limits to/from ZNZ.

Are in-flight Wi-Fi and entertainment available on routes to Zanzibar?

Long-haul carriers on one-stop routes usually offer Wi-Fi and personal entertainment in business class. Regional sectors into Zanzibar may have more limited connectivity — check aircraft details when booking.

Will I get priority boarding and lounge access when flying business to Zanzibar?

Yes — business class tickets generally include priority check-in, priority boarding and access to airline lounges at the departure hub. Lounge access at smaller regional airports may be limited.

Is Zanzibar safe for travellers and what should I be aware of?

Zanzibar is popular and generally safe for tourists; exercise usual precautions (secure valuables, avoid poorly lit areas at night). Respect local customs — Zanzibar is predominantly Muslim and conservative dress is appreciated in towns.

Are lie-flat seats available on flights to Zanzibar?

On long-haul sectors (e.g., U.S. → DOH/DXB/AMS) many carriers offer lie-flat business seats. The short regional sector into Zanzibar may use smaller aircraft without full lie-flat cabins — check the aircraft type when booking.

Can I upgrade to a higher cabin or request seat changes for Zanzibar flights?

Upgrades may be possible using miles, paid offers or at check-in depending on availability. Seat selection and changes are usually allowed for business class passengers; contact MyFlyYatra or your airline to request specific seats.

How early should I arrive at the airport for an international business class flight to Zanzibar?

We recommend arriving 2–3 hours before your international departure. Business class counters and fast-track security at major hubs make the process quicker; allow extra time if you have connecting visas or additional health checks.
