@obiero now holds 95,000 KQ shares at ABP of KES 21.9 representing my final stand, as I will make no further purchase, courtesy of the extreme dark clouds upon KQs previously proposed Open Offer. It's now a matter of waiting/hoping for the KAA-KQ tie up with blessing of GOK, KQLC and KLM.. Then a possible buy out/delisting offer from the said majority shareholders in the restructured KQ including KAA as new co-owner. My biggest gamble in life so far as no one now knows where the dice may fall, not even Michael Joseph


KQ at the right price is a buy, kizungumkuti is establishing that right price.

I actually know the bottom of KQ as KES 8.52 and had formulated it's top via the Open Offer scenario but now we are back to the drawing board. No one currently knows it's top especially since the KAA-KQ tie up is yet to happen


Sad putting all your eggs in a broken basket.

@sparkly I have no choice.. The loss position is too wide for me to consider selling. I will take my chances


Good luck.

Indeed good luck. Your investment stands at 2.08M(not sure whether that includes brokerage charges), plus time and opportunity costs not included.


He would have been better off buying an IFB then use the interest to buy KQ shares...

Does it make cents (and sense) when a dreamliner is pulled out of service and allocated to some 20 or so people? I don't think that was the government directive intention.

The plane if pulled out from routine service for use by the head of state, is paid for on a full capacity basis.. Economically its actually better for the airline when this happens. Even Uganda and Tanzania heads of state have had to use our flag carrier on some occasions in similar lease arrangement

While this is a good move,kq should look at it's cashflow in the arrangement.

He went via Paris... The plane had commercial passengers on board or what are you guys talking about...?

KQ gets details on any VVIP details like 2 weeks before travel date... Sitting arrangement... The first class cabin gets reconfigured according to the sitting plan... Like 1 hour before departure normal passengers will be told that the flight they are on has a VVIP... So boarding takes place early.... Normal passengers 1st at the normal gates then the plane gets towed to the VIP gate where the VVIP enters then it gets towed back ready for departure... There is actually a mobile check-in for such situations... Bags are also kept in separate containers kwa hold clearly marked VVIP.

On billing... Trust me they pay for the added services... A regular VVIP is the Comoros president... Regularly uses KQ.

Exactly. Even Museveni uses KQ.. I don't know what is wrong with HE Uhuru Kenyatta using the flag carrier.. @maka due to security related matters, sometimes government does buy out all seats. I'm surprised that he chose to fly with regular folk. But then again, it's the same guy who brought in the Passats for austerity
