MORE NAIROBI SERVICES FOR AIRLINK

These additional scheduled flights provide more choices for business and leisure travellers flying between the two cities.

In addition, they will boost Airlink’s existing daily Nairobi service.

This was launched last year – when Airlink became the first independent airline to operate flights on this route.

“Kenya is an important market and the route provides a vital connection between the two major hubs, stimulating bilateral and inter-regional travel, trade and economic activity. Airlink’s competitive and convenient flights will promote tourism in both markets,” said Airlink CEO and Managing Director Rodger Foster.

Kenya Airways also offers scheduled flights between the two cities.
