How to find flight information – Flights to Kabul and Flights from Kabul

I went to Afghanistan back in September 2008. Back then there were only two airlines flying to Kabul – Ariana – Afghanistan’s State owned airline and KamAir – a commercial airline, also from Afghanistan. I flew in with KamAir. I booked my ticket online, received the booking ID, then I had to send it to a friend in Kabul where he went to KanAir head office and paid my airfare in cash.

Flights to Kabul – KamAir

The web site I used was www.flykamair.com It’s been updated, but I doesn’t look like it accepts payments on-line, still. There is another KamAir web site that appeared since – www.flykamairline.com – not sure why two web sites, but the latter seems to accept credit cards.

Flights to Kabul – Ariana

FlyAriana web site: www.flyariana.com I haven’t used this site of flown with Ariana but I heard that flights are often cancelled, if the aircraft is used by some Afghan official. On the day I flew to Kabul from Dubal – the timetable display said that all Ariana flights from Dubal to Kabul were cancelled that day.

Flights to Kabul – Pamir Air

Pamir Air – www.pamirairways.net – another private airline in  Afghanistan. It was the first to receive the Air Operator Certificate from the Ministry of Civil Aviation of the Islamic Government of Afghanistan. It appears that you can book online and pay by credit card.

Flights to Kabul – Other Airlines

I think, the best way to fly to Kabul is from Dubal. It’s only a 2.5 hr flight and Dubai is a major connection point. I found that the best way to find what airlines fly to Afghanistan and when, is to go to Dubai Airport web site and see the list of today’s flights to and from Kabul. So, go to www.dubaiairport.com then, go to “Flight Information” > “Arrival-Departure”. Then, select Kabul in the “Destination/Originated From” drop-down menu. Leave all other fields blank and click search. The result page will list all flights to or from Kabul and the departure/ arrival time too. It will also show what airlines are flying in to Kabul. You can then go and Google them for more info.

Goog luck. If you have people in Afghanistan, it’s always best to check them them first, what airline they think is best at the time. More info – visit http://www.ausbusiness.net/review/flights-to-kabul/
