KENYA Airways has
introduced schedule
changes, effective
April 1, which it says will boost
connectivity for passengers
by 20%. This coincides with
the planned upgrade of Jomo
Kenyatta International Airport’s
runway.
The new flight schedule for
Johannesburg daily flights is
as follows:
Flight KQ765 departs
Johannesburg at 01h50 to
arrive in Nairobi at 06h55.
Flight KQ761 departs
Johannesburg at 12h35 to
arrive in Nairobi at 17h40.
Flight KQ763 departs
Johannesburg at 16h20 to
arrive in Nairobi at 21h25.
Flight KQ760 departs
Nairobi at 08h35 to arrive in
Johannesburg at 11h45.
Flight KQ762 departs
Nairobi at 12h05 to arrive in
Johannesburg at 15h15.
Flight KQ764 departs
Nairobi at 21h50 to arrive in
Johannesburg at 01h00.
Flights to the following
destinations will increase in
frequency: Malindi, Mombasa,
Kilimanjaro, Zanzibar, Lusaka,
Zambia, Lilongwe, Maputo,
Nampula, Harare, Kinshasa,
Yaounde, Douala, Dubai,
Mumbai and Paris.
Furthermore, Kenya
Airways will operate a flight
between Accra and Monrovia
using fifth freedom rights
as part of its Bilateral Air
Service Agreement with the
governments of Ghana and
Liberia.
Delays
Travellers flying from JKIA
are advised to check in four
hours prior to departure.
Delays are expected following
the closure of the runway
between midnight and
06h00.
The closure is to pave the
way for a major rehabilitation
project over the next year. It
forms part of KAA’s strategy
to ensure that the airport
operates at an optimum level
for the next 15 years, the
Kenyan Airport Authority said
in a statement.
“Passengers should be
advised to use taxis or be
dropped off, to avoid leaving
their cars at the airport
as this will lead to further
congestion.”
