Event: The U.S. Embassy continues to coordinate for transportation out of South Sudan.
As of April 4, 2020, there will be no scheduled flights departing South Sudan. The U.S. Embassy continues to pursue alternative options. U.S. citizens should regularly check their email for updates, as changes can come quickly and with no notice. If the U.S. Embassy is successful in coordinating future flights out of South Sudan, U.S. Citizens who want to leave should get on that flight and assume it is the last.
U.S. citizens in South Sudan who have been unable to return to the United States due to the suspension of regularly scheduled commercial flights from South Sudan should contact the American Citizen Services office of the U.S. Embassy in Juba.
