Kenya Airways expects 3 million passengers for year ending Mar-2011
Kenya Airways expects to carry 3 million passengers and 60,000 tonnes of cargo in its year ending Mar-2011 due to expansion of its routes in Africa and the Middle East (ABN Digital, 07-Oct-2010). Kenya Airways carried 2,697,134 million passengers and 57,700 tonnes of cargo in 2009.
Kenya Airways: "What is next is that we follow that strategy to make sure we cover every city in Africa. We would like to accomplish that goal in the next five years. It will also depend on a lot of things," [citing the availability of aircraft, pilots, airport spaces and bilateral agreements between governments]. Titus Naikuni, CEO.
