If you're flying into Entebbe International Airport, near Kampala, Uganda, the flight time can vary in length from 9h 30min to 11h 55min with a stopover in East Africa. If you’re flying out of Johannesburg (JNB) to Entebbe (EBB), convenient options include Kenya Airways and Ethiopian Airlines. For Entebbe flight deals from the cities of Cape Town (CPT) and Durban (DUR), an option is to fly on to JNB before you connect to an onward flight that serves Entebbe. If so, consider adding at least 3h to the domestic leg of your journey from Durban and 5h to the domestic leg of your journey from Cape Town.

Through an interline agreement with Emirates, it is possible to fly on Airlink non-stop from OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg, South Africa, to Entebbe International Airport (EBB), Entebbe, Uganda. When considering Entebbe flight deals, however, a far more cost-effective way to fly is with a  single stop-over. Kenya Airways via Nairobi (NBO) and Ethiopian Airlines via Addis Ababa (ADD) offer good connectivity from Johannesburg to Entebbe. Both Ethiopian Airlines and Kenya Airways offer direct flights from Cape Town (CPT) to Addis Ababa and Nairobi without you being routed via Johannesburg. From Durban (DUR), a good option is to connect via Johannesburg, as neither Kenya Airways not Ethiopian Airlines offer flights from the city. It is also possible to fly with Emirates to Dubai (DXB) and then connect on a flight to Entebbe, but this means flying north past Entebbe and then rerouting yourself back down south to Uganda, which will add a considerable amount of time to your journey.
