Starting in July, Kenya Airways (KQ) will add direct flights between Gatwick Airport in the UK and Nairobi’s Jomo Kenyatta Airport (JKIA). The new service will supplement KQ’s existing London schedule and will mean 10 weekly flights to the UK from Nairobi.

The Gatwick service will operate three times per week, leaving Nairobi for Gatwick in the evening on a Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.
