Search for new chief executive KQ signs American firm to hire new chief executive“aviation and African experience” “business leader with experience in successfully driving aggressive and sustainable growth, managing complex capital intensive business and delivering operational and safety excellence.” "The government will have a major say on who the next chief executive will be as the majority shareholder, with a 29.8 per cent stake."

[quote=vastcapital]Ethiopian airline assault http://www.businessdaily...-/14g0d7uz/-/index.html[/quote] That has been one of the most lucrative sub sahara Africa routes for KQ;sad to see them lose it but hope they manage to improve service and increase capacity on other routes to compensate

Kenya Airways’ domestic low cost carrier Jambo Jet, scheduled to launch on April 01 2014, had received 8,500 bookings on the Nairobi to Mombasa, Kisumu and Eldoret routes as at 04 March since bookings were opened on 27 February. The number of bookings was in line with management’s expectations and driven by the low fares charged. Jambo Jet is charging 2,850 for a one-way ticket from Nairobi to Mombasa, Kisumu or Eldoret, which are the lowest fares among all domestic carriers. 80.0% of the total bookings were made online, which was above management’s expectations. To increase market share for Jambo Jet, Kenya Airways will withdraw its current flights on the Nairobi-Eldoret route on April 01. We expect Jambo Jet’s low fares to continue attracting favourable passenger numbers and accelerate growth in Kenya Airways’ domestic passenger revenues (accounted for 6.3% of total FY13 revenue).

No more matatus for busy businessmen. I think this is a good move by Kenya Airways. We have many young and upcoming business men who would like to traverse the whole of this republic at friendly air fares. Kudos and lets do business.

We now await FY14 results

Kenya Airways Bags ‘Most Punctual Airline’ At Heathrow For The Third TimeKenya’s national airline Kenya Airways has for the third time been named by Heathrow Airport as the most punctual airline, leaving over 80 other carriers trailing in their wake again. From information provided by the airline’s General Manager UK, Europe and the Americas, Ms. Nita Nagi, ALL flights in February left London on time for Nairobi, a remarkable feat considering the often notoriously bad UK weather and the unrelenting demand on runway space for take offs. The announcement comes hot on the heels of Kenya Airways’ confirmation that flights to Paris will be re-launched on the 03rd of June this year, signaling a fresh expansion drive made possible by the arrival on 04th of April of KQ’s first B787-8 Dreamliner, a further 5 such planes before the end of 2014 and an additional B777-300ER.

Could you be the Tom recently brought on board as Head of Special Projects by Naiks, and who I suspect is part of his succession strategy
