That's why KQ doesn't give you an extra cup of water while flying. They can't afford it!

Are u on the plane to journey or to eat and drink?? This is the problem in Africa.. Never satisfied. Thats why we even have a very successful rap group called Kleptomaniacs!

You can't dream of enjoying a first world economy if your own backyard is third world! #fixit @ShingiMunyeza

It's good to aspire, it's also good to be grounded. Africa lacks the most of basic infrastructure & services. Now, that is an opportunity for some, a problem to some.

Can't get a flight booking to Europe (Amsterdam) next week on KQ/KLM as they are fully booked. The doom and gloom here doesn't add up.

heading to AMS one uses KLM. Raha ile iko pale iko salama but haifikii Qatar. The night flight from AMS to NBO is sad (read KQ), asubuhi asbuhi Ngumu, Juice/chai na njugu

Return ticket to Uganda now costs KES 53,000 being almost the same cost for a one way ticket to the middle east. KQ will turn the corner.. By the way, most wazuans harp on Warrent Buffet's old opinion against investin in airline stock but the old wise man is the proud owner of Netjets USA, an aviation firm!

@Obiero I know you have sworn by this stock and I totally respect your opinion/analysis, but is there any specific reason to warrant your projection of +100 for this stock in the next few years. Especially considering there are looming court cases, travel advisories etc etc and of course not forgetting things were not rosy before the westgate, alshabaab & Ebola factors.

KES 100 is based on hope, but realistically KES 40 is the true fair price of KQ upon return to profitability of any kind.. I would hasten to add for the purpose of exit from cash/profit crisis, the policy of hedging must be brought to a close and a new policy cappin age of fleet to planes younger than 7 years signed in..
