This route was established in response to market demand. The Mombasa to Dubai route will draw visitors to the Middle East for vacations and religious visits. The region's traders of electronics, clothing, and other consumer goods will also benefit from the flight's belly cargo capacity. Furthermore, the flights will increase the capacity for direct exports of seafood and fresh produce to the Middle East.

The Dubai to Mombasa route will provide direct access for tourists from the Middle East, Russia, Northern Europe, and Australia to experience the hospitality, tourism, and natural wonders of the coastal region, and it is expected to boost the tourism sector on the Kenyan Coast.

The flights on the Mombasa to Dubai route will originate in Nairobi and make a stopover in Mombasa to pick up passengers. With the addition of this route, KQ will increase its frequency to Dubai from 10 times per week to 14 times per week.
