Celebrating 5 Years & Taking It Up a Notch! 🎉 Kenya Airways isn’t just celebrating a significant milestone – they’re soaring higher than ever! Five glorious years ago, they took to the skies, becoming the pioneering and sole carrier to connect Nairobi directly to the bustling city of New York. Since that inaugural flight on 28th October 2018, they’ve welcomed aboard 300,000 eager passengers and transported a whopping 6,000 tonnes of cargo across 1,700 flights.
Broadening Horizons with Delta Airlines 🌍✈️
Here’s where it gets even more exciting! Kenya Airways and Delta Airlines are expanding their wings together. Their strengthened partnership promises travelers a plethora of new journeys, covering 31 spectacular destinations in Africa and an impressive 57 cities in the U.S. and Canada.
A Word from the Top Gun at Kenya Airways 🎙️
Allan Kilavuka, the dynamic Group Managing Director and CEO, couldn’t be more thrilled. “These five years have truly been a journey of passion. This Nairobi-New York connection is more than just a route; it’s our commitment to bridging two worlds. It’s a boon for tourism, commerce, and bilateral relations. And guess what? We’re just getting started!”
More Than Just a Flight Path 🌆
This isn’t just about travel; it’s about transformation. The Nairobi-New York route is Kenya’s bridge to North America, enhancing trade, education, healthcare, sports, and leisure opportunities. In return, East Africa has blossomed as a hotspot for U.S. tourism and investments.
Trade, Tourism, and Tantalizing Stats 📊
The U.S. isn’t just any market for Kenya; it’s the crown jewel. In 2022 alone, Kenya exported goods worth a staggering $890 million to the U.S., with the U.S. returning the favor with $600 million in exports. Plus, over 200,000 U.S. tourists couldn’t resist the allure of Kenya.
