Group managing director and chief executive officer of Kenyan Airways has described the relationship between the company and local flight agents as impressive.
Kenya-based Titus Naikuni said this in Lilongwe on Wednesday during a luncheon Kenya Airways organised to interact with the local flight agents and to understand issues concerning its operations here.
He thanked the agents for the support given to Kenya Airways.
“Malawi has got the biggest market in airline as far as Kenyan Airways is concerned from Nairobi. I can assure you that in the near future, Kenya Airways will be every where here in Africa,” said Naikuni
The airline boss said the company cannot grow without opening up first in Africa and this is why it intends to open up in Mozambique, Free Town in Sierra Leone, Bamako in Mali and Dakar in Senegal.
Naikuni also said the Kenyan government will soon embark on a K230 million (US$2 million) project of rehabilitating the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi which, he said, will be a big achievement since it will help to increase flight frequencies and improve on efficiency.
Naikuni, who arrived in Malawi hours before the luncheon, met First Lady Ethel Mutharika in the afternoon and made a donation to the Ethel Mutharika Foundation. |
