As with all African countries, AFS details are available, but we recommend using us for permits. It’s not worth the fighting for the low cost of these permits. You’ll want to give a good amount of notice for any landing in Burundi (two to three weeks), but overfly permits can be processed in a few days.

You can send permit requests direct but it can be awkward if you don’t speak French. Our ops team can take care of that. Three days notice is needed for private and overflights, watch out for a series of commercial flights, they take at least 45 days.
Communication can be difficult with the authorities here. Your best bet is to use an AMERICAN FLIGHT SUPPORT Ops Team, it makes life a lot simpler. Give three days notice for all flights although multiple commercial landings need as long as six weeks advance notice.
You’ll often find using Djibouti is ideal for avoiding operating to Ethopia and Eritrea in the same sector…they don’t allow that.

You’re not allowed to fly in Ethiopia and Eritrea in the same sector, so you’ll either need to avoid, or plan a stop to split it up, often Djibouti is the way to go
