Kenya Airways has increased its flights to the United States to three times a week, up from one.
The flights will operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
Effective June, July, August and December, Flight KQ002 departs Nairobi at 23h35 and arrives in New York 07h35 the next day. The return flight KQ003 departs New York on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays at 13h45 and arrives in Nairobi at 10h30 the next day.
The airline’s spokesperson told Tourism Update that the carrier had seen a recent strong demand from the US to Kenya.
However, in September, October and November, the airline will reduce frequencies to twice a week. The flight to New York will depart on Tuesdays and Saturdays and the return flight will be on Wednesdays and Sundays.
The airline plans to add more flights based on current trends.
