What's the fare in Economy? [BTW, @obiero do you still get free upgrades or Mikosz put a stop to that?] I am part of the team that facilitated the CEO shortlisting so your guess is a good as mine https://www.businessdail...293588-r3nf5m/index.html HF 428,000 ABP 3.49; KQ 414,100 ABP 7.92; MTN 15,750 ABP 6.45

By October, it will be a full flight. I expect to see more destinations under Mikosz. The only way to grow revenue is to add more destinations and task the sales guys to produce results.

I expect to see Ethiopian launching this route soon as it seems they do not fly there. You will know they just copy from KQ and they should never have overtaken KQ.

I hear the hills/mountains [source of the Blue Nile] are beautiful. I would like to visit Addis/Ethiopia. The flight is only $200 or so on Ethiopian Airlines. As for the "vibrant tourist circuit" one has be cautious coz our advantages can be easily negated in 10-20 years as countries woo tourists. Greedy when others are fearful.

@obiero - I don’t know of many tourists who visit Kenya to go see Lake Victoria Maasai Mara - It’s counterpart on the TZ side is actually much larger. Mt Kenya - Yes, but Kili is higher. Ethiopia is also safer for hikers. Indian Ocean - We have but a small portion. Sure Ethiopia doesn’t have access to the sea but our other competitors do. You can thump your chest all you want but Kenya cannot remain complacent as others pick up the pace. Rwanda, Tanzania and Ethiopia all want to eat our lunch. A slow leak can sink a ship.

What does that mean? "Road Shows"? Offer reasonable fares, good connections and good service... and folks will follow! Road shows make sense to promote tourism [in conjunction with KQ] but not a road show to promote a flight segment. Greedy when others are fearful.

Jokes aside, I think that a REASONABLE price, the NBO-JFK route can fly full most of the year... Then there are the UN/UNEP folks flying to/from NYC to myriad East African destinations. If KQ charges crazy high prices then it will be a challenge. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett
