Kenya Airways resumes Eldoret flights

In a bid to bolster its presence in the local market and fortify regional connectivity, Kenya Airways will resume flight services to and from Eldoret, effective March 25th, 2024.

The decision comes as Eldoret, a bustling economic hub in Uasin Gishu County, continues to attract a diverse array of travellers, ranging from business executives to tourists eager to explore the region's vibrant economy and cultural heritage.

With flights scheduled five days a week, passengers will now conveniently travel between Eldoret and major destinations, including Nairobi, Mombasa, and international connections, on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Allan Kilavuka, CEO of Kenya Airways, emphasized the strategic significance of reinstating flights to Eldoret, underlining the airline's commitment to fostering economic growth and regional integration.

"Our renewed focus on the domestic market reaffirms Kenya Airways' pivotal role in advancing Africa's economic prosperity. By connecting Eldoret to our extensive network, we aim to stimulate growth and foster lasting socio-economic development in the region," Kilavuka stated in a statement on Wednesday. 

The revival of Eldoret routes signifies a crucial milestone in Kenya Airways' recovery journey post-COVID-19. As the airline strives to provide reliable and efficient air travel services, it remains dedicated to supporting the nation's economic resurgence and promoting connectivity within the continent.

"As Kenya Airways prepares to resume operations to Eldoret, travelers can expect exceptional service, world-class amenities, and the utmost commitment to safety and comfort. The airline remains committed in its mission to connect people, cultures, and markets, contributing to the prosperity and well-being of communities across Africa and beyond," Kilavuka said.

In a bid to ensure accessibility for all travellers, competitive airfares will be offered for flights to and from Eldoret, aligning with Kenya Airways' commitment to affordability and inclusivity in air travel.
