Kenya Airways has emerged as a big loser with the launch of China Southern Airlines’ direct flights from Nairobi to Guangzhou.

I don't know what is all the fuss about China Southern joining the market. I beseech all ye wazuans to go to your local grocery market today and learn a few basics about business and perhaps wake up to the reality of doing business.

What i mean is, if you visit the market today you will realise almost everyone is selling the same things e.g., nyanya, kitungulu, sukuma wiki etc. Some mama mbogas have loyal customers who buy from them daily, some have upped their game to win/poach customers by maybe selling quality fresh products,offering discounts etc.At the end of the day everyone must sell and take some money home. In short there must be competition in business.

Top management in KQ draw hefty salos and it is their job to think and come up with ways to gain a competitive edge in the market. They can start serving fufu and pepe soup in large quantities for all i care to attract the ogas who are the main source of business on this route.They can even serve ugali/pap if that will give them an edge.

The idea of opening a booking office in river rori was in my opinion brilliant. One in Eastleigh would not be bad either.....what about cargo from China etc I pick my cargo from China in Easich. The cargo plane is owned by businessmen from Easich and they dont disappoint.

In other news this RINK offers great opportunities for KQ

Qualitative feedback:
2hr 40m flight from Zambia to Kenya
(hoping passengers experience at JKIA on arrival was more pleasant)

Gulf carriers deny receiving subsidies.

Al Baker challenged the U.S. airlines to publish their allegations and accused them of receiving "backdoor subsidies" through Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.

KQ's profit on each passenger can't buy a good cup of coffee, an official says


Why wouldn't the management shut up when it matters?
