Kenya Airways and Airlink have signed an interline agreement that will extend the airlines’ reach in the Southern African and the East African regions respectively.
The new agreement will offer customers travel to over 40 cities across Africa.
Under this latest agreement, Kenya Airways customers flying to South Africa will be able to connect with Airlink-operated flights to Windhoek, Durban, Gaborone, Maseru, Pemba, Maputo, and Port Elizabeth.
It will also enable Airlink passengers to book a through-ticket to Nairobi and make connections to the rest of Kenya Airways’ destinations within Africa, including Entebbe, Kigali, Dar es Salaam, Bujumbura, and Kinshasa.
“As global economies continue to reel from the effects of the pandemic, such strategic partnerships are critical. These new routes will positively impact the flow of trade and tourism across the region by offering our customers convenient travel around the continent,” said Julius Thairu, Kenya Airways Acting Chief Commercial Officer.
