Kenya Airways and JamboJet sign codeshare agreement

The agreement took effect on August 1.

The deal coincides with a capacity optimisation within the Kenya Airways group that will make Jambojet grow its presence in Malindi, As Kenya Airways will now focus its domestic operation on Mombasa and Kisimu. Jambojet flights will increase from daily to 17 flights per week, creating seamless connections between the two networks in both directions.

"We are delighted to seal this agreement, which will allow us to enhance connectivity between the two networks. This will bring about a greater flow of both local and international travelers and boost the number of tourists to the Coastal cities,” said Jambojet CEO Willem Hondius.  “Without a doubt this agreement will contribute to our growth as a low cost carrier and with the increased number of flights, we will further improve our service offering to our customers travelling to Malindi.”
