Are the dreamliners being returned early or is it as a result of end of lease period? as per this link, the dreamliners should be back 2019 at the earliest...

What about the 777s? will they be sold off or come back with a potential to fly NBO-JFK? I think the code share with delta will grant them a very good connectivity network with the americas

Must have had a clause for early recall... Coz without those 2 planes there is only 1 extra dreamliner on standby the one that used to go to Hanoi and HK...

777 honestly sijui... The 1st 6 months on that route will be loss making...

Going cowboy to USA seems risky but I wish KQ good luck and Godspeed. USD 999 on Economy to JFK is dirt cheap

Rwandair is overly ambitious. And remember as Chinua said.. Too much ambition kills
People who live in Glass Houses should not throw stones. I don’t think a single frequency to USA is overly ambitious.


The airline, which is 99% owned by the Government of Rwanda, will fly this route using Airbus A330 which was acquired in 2017.

The Jambo Jet is a redemption path for KQ, perhaps they can borrow a leave from Air Asia and get a grip of the business... Lots of Capital injection required from government couple with multi billion upgrade of JKIA.

JKIA is a national disgrace especially when you visit other developing countries airports.
More monies, more problems...

It would be interesting to find out which other African airports you are referring to..
