Meanwhile, Mike Maina Kamau top individual KQ shareholder, 8 year case against GoK in destruction of his 8 bedroom Spring Valley mansion to be heard next week at the Environmental Court Thisis a classic lawsuit and I'm eagerly waiting to see the outcome. A real test of jurisprudence in Kenya. John 5:17 But Jesus replied, “My Father is always working, and so am I.”

Using myStocks to chart KQ vs KK [1 Dec 2013 to 12 Nov 2018] KK +103% + dividends (extra cream) KQ -11% Choices have consequences. Burundi, Kenya fight over aircraft deployment https://www.businessdail...946234-4847412-13g9j1r/
Were JJ's flights in addition to KQ's flights to BUJ or was JJ replacing KQ on this route? These Burundians are cry-babies given it is a broke-ass country. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

Though the AMISOM security forces are not asleep in MGQ, especially at the fortified greenzone and the Aden Adde airport, Hargesia airport has never had an incident while Kismayo and Berbera landing strips are no go zones. Of note is that KQ in 2006 was undertaking daily flights to MGQ. Liwe liwalo. 15.11.2018 we go live.. Get rich or die trying

Yes. We already saw the KQ operating profit recently.. So right now it's all about the bottom line. With the recent moves in Cape Town, Mauritius, Gabon, USA and now Somalia, the revenues can only face one way as there are now only two serious African carriers

KQ will rue the day that Ngunze sold off the prime slots slots at LHR. Kenya's #1 export market. Kenya's top 3 tourism source market. Lots of diasporans in the London area. LHR has excellent connections to North America and Europe. It rivals AMS and CDG. Greedy when others are fearful. Very fearful when others are greedy - to paraphrase Warren Buffett

KQ costs have been on a quarter to quarter decline over the last 5 years and USA launch had to eat up some cash.. Nothing is free in this world, KQ is renting office space in 1835 Broadway suite 604 as its sales office. In the middle of New York city, of course it's expensive! Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

KQ have introduced a Brand Warrior reward program for each staff that gets clients to fly with KQ but @maka instead keeps reminiscent of the dropped Buddy Pass.. I know @maka is a gentleman thus I wish him well but you can tell that a clique of workers at KQ are against KQs turnaround, which makes it difficult for top management to deliver. Very similar to what happened to Mourinho at his last Chelsea season
