Troubled Kenya Airways has announced the resumption of flights to the coastal town of Malindi with four weekly flights starting 10th June 2019.

A statement from the local airline last year said that flights to Lamu, Malindi, and Ukunda are well served so the company will focus on other routes.

“This gives the company the chance to serve you better regionally by redeploying capacity to where it’s needed more,” Air Kenya General Manager Capt. Dino Bisleti said in the statement.

Currently, other airlines serving the three routes include Fly540, Safarilink and Jambo Jet, a subsidiary of Kenya Airways.

The flight will be operated by Jambojet using a Bombardier Q400 and will increase the frequency of flights by four, in addition to the nine weekly flights to this destination.

The airline’s re-entry to this route is a great boost to the town, well-known for its strong Italian connections when the airline launches the Rome-Geneva flights on 12th June 2019.

Through the codeshare partnership with Alitalia, passengers from all over Italy will also be able to access Malindi through a one-stop service via Nairobi.
