It's ridiculous how much we pay to Entebbe. We need open skies to encourage more movement of people within EAC.
And Emirates has added seats to Nairobi. Flying only 777s on this route while KQ sold/leased their 777s.
"The Dubai-Nairobi route is doing very well for us and we believe the extra capacity meets a growing demand for our services to and from Kenya."

Compare KQ vs Emirates
Is the current turmoil in the global currency markets a deep concern to Emirates?
"As a global business, we are not immune to currency fluctuations. In our last fiscal year, our bottom line was impacted by currency fluctuations which limited the profitability boost from lower oil prices. However, we still managed to post our best financial results to date, which is testimony to the strength of our brands and business fundamentals, as well as the dedication of our workforce."
