That is freaking expensive. It is better to take a bus to Hargeisa and fly from there. You save $US 280 minus the cost of the bus.

Competition in the market is key to lower ticket costs. The more airlines you have in the market the lower the cost of flying provided the airlines don't form a cartel. Boosaaso should attract more airlines to serve important routes.

First there is no competition in bosaaso the same with muqdisho but in Hargeisa u got flydubai, Arab air, Ethiopian airlines.

Second reason. the airlines insurance u got alshabaab not far from bosaaso.
