Airport transfers
A driver at your gate for the departure, and waiting in arrivals when you land at Melchior Ndadaye. Night flights included.
Bujumbura · Galerie la Perle, no 11
Leave Burundi with your papers already in order.
We issue the ticket, build the visa file, cover the trip with insurance, book the room and drive you to the airport. One counter, one person answering the phone.
The whole trip, in one model
From our counter to your gate.
The office on Galerie la Perle, the road to Melchior Ndadaye, the ten carriers on the apron and the room waiting at the other end. We handle every building in this picture.
Every routing we sell starts at this one point on the map. Nothing leaves Burundi non-stop for Europe or the Gulf, so the connection is the whole craft of the job.

03 · At the counter
Everything a trip needs, in one office.
Most travellers come to us for a ticket and leave with the whole trip settled. Nothing here is outsourced to a second agency.
Airline ticketing
Our main work. Tell us where you are going and when, and we come back with the fare options that actually exist on the day — including the routings other agencies skip because they take an extra call.

Getting you on the plane
The ticket, and everything that touches the airport.
Excess baggage & cargo
Extra kilos bought ahead at the counter rate instead of the airport rate, and unaccompanied cargo when the bag will not fly with you.
Meet & greet, fast-track
Someone walks you through check-in and immigration. Worth it for elderly travellers, first-time flyers and short connections in Nairobi or Addis.
eSIM and roaming data
Land with working internet instead of hunting for a SIM shop. Installed and tested on your phone before you leave the office.
Car with driver
By the day in Bujumbura, or across the border to Kigali, Bukavu and Kigoma when the drive beats the flight.
Hotel booking
Rooms held with confirmation letters your embassy will accept, from Nairobi transit hotels to long stays in Dubai or Brussels.
Papers and permission
The part that decides whether the ticket is any use to you.
Visa assistance
We list the documents your embassy really asks for, check the file before it goes in, and book the appointment. Schengen, Gulf, East Africa, Asia.
Travel insurance
Cover that satisfies visa officers and actually pays if you fall ill abroad. Certificate issued the same day.
Passport files
First application or renewal: the form filled correctly, photos to the right specification, and the appointment booked so you go once.
Entry authorisations
Electronic entry approvals and the East Africa tourist visa that covers Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda on one permit. The rules change often — we track them.
Travel health paperwork
Which vaccination certificates your destination checks at the border, and where in Bujumbura to get them stamped before you fly.
Pay in instalments
Hold the fare with a deposit and clear the balance before departure. Useful when the ticket lands in the wrong month for your budget.
Trips with more to them
Journeys where the ticket is the smallest part of the job.
Student travel
Admission letter to first lecture: student visa file, the ticket on a student fare, first month of accommodation and someone at the airport when they land.
Medical travel
Nairobi, India, Turkey. Appointment coordination, the medical visa file, tickets for patient and companion, and a room close to the hospital.
Pilgrimage groups
Umrah and church group departures handled as one file: group fares, the visa batch, accommodation and a leader who has done the route before.
Corporate & NGO accounts
Monthly invoicing, one named contact, traveller profiles kept on file, and a number that answers when a flight collapses on a Sunday night.
Diaspora ticketing
Pay from Brussels, Toronto or Nairobi and we issue in Bujumbura for your family here. They collect the ticket at the counter, you get the receipt by email.
Safari & inbound
Lake Tanganyika, Rusizi and the Gitega drum sanctuary for visitors, plus gorilla trekking and Mara safaris booked from this side of the border.
04 · Destinations
Where our travellers actually go.
Some for a holiday, most for family, study, treatment or work. These are the destinations we book week after week from the counter in Galerie la Perle.
Somewhere else in mind? We ticket worldwide — tell us the city and we will come back with the routings that exist on your dates.
05 · Visa check
Check your visa file before you buy a ticket.
Pick a destination and see what a Burundian passport holder is normally asked for. Indicative, not official — but it is the same list we work from at the counter.
Embassies change their requirements without warning. Bring the list to the office and we will check the file page by page before it goes in.

The person behind the counter.
Skyline Agency-Travel was built around one idea: the hard part of travel is not buying the seat, it is everything that has to be true before you are allowed to sit in it.
“A ticket is easy to sell. What people remember is whether someone picked up the phone when the flight changed at midnight.”
