Step 1
Learn about flight schedules and services offered by Halcyon Air Bissau Airways by contacting a travel agent experienced in booking travel for the region. Halcyon Air Bissau Airways has no Web site, so uncovering this information on your own could prove taxing. Your travel agent will be able to present you with the information you need to decide if Halcyon Air Bissau Airways is the carrier best suited for your needs.

Step 2
Be aware that Halcyon Air Bissau Airways only has one plane at this time, an ATR 42-300 model from France. With only one plane in the fleet, be prepared to book your air travel reservations in advance so you can get a seat at your desired travel time.

Step 1
Realize that a trip to Osvaldo Vieiro International Airport is inevitable. As Guinea-Bissau's only international airport, all international flights and most domestic ones come through here. If you are traveling on Halcyon Air-Bissau Airways, it is certain that you will make at least one arrival or departure from Osvaldo Vieiro. The airport is located at Aptado Postal 10527, Bissau Codex 1501 in the nation's capital city of Bissau.
-
Step 2
Experience a real primitive landing. Guinea-Bissau's gorgeous outlying islands, including the only archipelago in Africa, are popular destinations for tourists and eco-travelers. If you visit, be prepared for a bumpy ride as you land on a rough airstrip in the grass or on the sand, rather than at an airport. There are no airports on the islands.
