Here are a few more tips to help you find cheap airfare to Yaounde:

• Consider flights into Douala. There are daily flights between the two cities, as well as trains and buses. Although it will take longer to reach your destination, a bus or train could save you enough cash to make it worth your while.
• Look for flights that go through Paris, London, Johannesburg or another major gateway city. Because there are more flights from Paris-Yaounde than the once-a-week Brussels-Cameroon route, chances are the Paris routes will be cheaper. It is approximately 9 hours from Paris to Yaounde. It is very common to layover in one of these main cities.
• Consider traveling on a lesser-known carrier. Cameroon Airlines is the national airline. However, Air France, Air Gabon, British Airways, Kenya Airways and Nigeria Airways also serve the country.
• Airfare to Yaounde will be the cheapest on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursday. Mondays are popular with business travellers and weekends are key dates for holidaymakers wanting the longest trips possible - avoid these dates. The most expensive air tickets to Yaounde are found during peak holiday travel times, such as the New Year. The dry season of November-May also attracts many visitors. Also be aware of national events or festivals, which can also cause ticket prices to rise.
