When this route gets cheap.
The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 18 hours outbound, on a 29-night trip — ticketed under British Airways, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $1,208 for 14,043 km each way, that works out to about $43 per 1,000 km flown. That is about the $42 per 1,000 km typical of ultra-long-haul fares here. Across the 12 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Nairobi, this fare ranks 6th — 2.0× the $593 we hold from Houston. That puts it in the cheaper half of the 30 routes of similar length we watch out of Dallas, where the middle fare is $1,208. We have 1 month of cached prices for this route so far — not enough to call a fare cheap or expensive, so we publish the price without a percentage. Fare history here is still too short to name a cheap season. The best time to be in Nairobi: Jun–Oct · Jan–Feb.

The median cached fare across this calendar is 122% higher than when tracking began on 1 Sep — $686 then versus $1,523 now, across 4 recorded snapshots. This is a calendar-level trend, so an individual deal above can be lower. The lowest single day we have seen here is $580, on 5 Sep.
These are the only days we have a cached price for on this route so far — not the only days it flies. The search above covers any date.

Good to know
DFW → NBO, answered.
How far in advance should I book DFW → Nairobi?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. Our guide Why flight prices change covers the levers we can measure.
Are there nonstop flights from Dallas to Nairobi?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under British Airways. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 15 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
