Route notes
Why this routing works
This multi-stop routing uses Newark as the departure point, then places the longest stay in Nairobi before continuing west to Abidjan and finishing in Addis Ababa. With one week on the ground in Nairobi, the trip is weighted toward a single primary stop rather than evenly split stays.
Because all sectors are flown and there are no surface gaps, the sequencing is straightforward to ticket and follow. The route moves from the US into East Africa, across to West Africa, then back to East Africa for the final stop, which keeps the itinerary as a single continuous chain rather than requiring a return to an earlier city.
In February, the timing suits a compact economy itinerary built around one substantial stay and two onward points. For travelers comparing multi-stop options, the main logistical feature here is the concentration of nights in Nairobi, with Abidjan and Addis Ababa functioning as later stops on the same ticketed journey.
