Is it better to find one way ticket from Dakar in Europe or you can find good price also in Dakar. I saw prices for about min.550euro. Is this normal, becouse two way costs about 500euro?

It's normal that a one way ticket is more expensive than a two way. Even airline employees tell you to buy two way tickets although you want to fly only one way. Just make shure you book "the right direction", your ticket might beeing canceled if you're not on the first flight.

One way ticket is (almost)always cheaper then return (but it's not half the price). Normaly it's better NOT to buy the ticket in "third" country.
And now something personaly:
ce vam ni odvec mi posljite mail (marko.petric@XXX - namesto xxx napisite siol.net) - tudi jaz (in se nekaj prijateljev) planiramo podobno pot-pa bi si lahko izmenjali kaksno izkusnjo

6There are several travel agencies and airlines offering tickets in Dakar for less than 200,000CFA about 300 Euros. Try Air Algerie or Dakar Voyages both are on or near Place d'Indepandence. These prices exist all the year round.

Having worked in the travel industry for 10+ years I can confirm that the advice about buying a return ticket is correct. You cannot use a ticket out of sequence - ie: forego the Europe to Dakar coupon and utilise the return Dakar to Europe coupon.

You will not buy the best Dakar to Europe fare outside Dakar. You will always get the best one way fare when buying in the country of origin. So get in touch with a travel agent in the country of origin. Also look at indirect services - direct flights are not always the cheapest. I once found the cheapest fare from Cairo to London was via Bucharest....

Have dealt with them before & they were reliable.
