Getting TO/AROUND: Form Seiyun, you can take shared taxi for YR100 (30 mins) to Shibam. The taxi will wait for 5 pax beofre it starts off. From shibam, the atxi with the same fare for return. But the later you come back, i.e. the darker the sky is, the most difficult for you to get shared taxi and you may end up chartting a taxi for YR500-1,000 (May 2008). So do take note.

Getting TO/AROUND: I flew Yemenia airlines domestic flight from Sana'a to Seiyun round trip. It was US$145. I booked the air ticket through a traverl agent before my arrival. There is daily flight, so there should have no problem during low season.

The 737 aircraft looks quite new. Inside the aircraft, the monitors even has 3D flight path, which was the first time I have ever seen so far. Even Emirates, Singapore airlines, Cathay Pacific, Air France, Continental airlines which I have flown in the last 6 months do not have. See more pics for the monitor.
