The plane is the first of six 787s which Kenya Airways has ordered as part of its modernization programme and it will form the backbone of the airline’s future long-haul fleet, providing greater range, improved efficient and outstanding passenger comfort.

President Kenyatta said: “I have no doubt this will result in the growth of trade, tourism and other forms of interaction with the rest of the world.”
It paves the way for the Kenya Airways to further deepen our trade connections with the world, especially through long haul flights.
“We are determined that this airport will fulfill its mandate as the air hub for East and Central Africa.” he added. (RED PEPPER)
