Flights to The Gambia from London Gatwick
Banjul (BJL), The Gambia
Gatwick flights to Banjul, The Gambia are available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays throughout the high season
from November to April and are operated by 2 flight companies:
Thomas Cook provide Gatwick-Banjul flights on a Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Outbound flights from Gatwick
to Banjul are priced separately to inbound flights from Banjul to Gatwick, so you're not restricted to multiples of
7 nights e.g. you can fly out to The Gambia on a Wednesday for 9 nights (and return on a Friday) or fly out to The Gambia
on a Friday for 12 nights (and return on a Wednesday). In fact flight options for 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15
and 16 or more nights are possible.
Monarch Airlines operates flights to The Gambia from Gatwick throughout the year on a Tuesday
and Friday. As with Thomas Cook, this opens up the possibility for durations other than 7 or 14 nights e.g. you can fly
to The Gambia on a Tuesday for 10 nights (and return to London on a Friday) or fly to The Gambia on a Friday for 11
nights and return to London on a Tuesday. Monarch Airlines don't sell flights to The Gambia directly, however, there
are some online travel agencies that offer their Tuesday or Friday Gambia flights for durations of 7 or 14 nights.
Note: 10/11 night durations from Gatwick to Banjul with Monarch are only available through
www.gambiaflights.co.uk
as are flights to The Gambia over the summer (May to October). These tend to be more expensive than other flight options
to The Gambia.
