Qatar Airways expand interline agreement with KQ





In a bid to cover 43 destinations across Africa through its 14 weekly flights to and from Nairobi, Qatar Airways has expanded its interline agreement with Kenya Airways. 

Consequently, there will be access to two local connections to Mombasa and Kisumu.

According to Qatar Airways Vice President Africa Hendrik Du Preez, interline cooperation has brought tremendous benefits to both airlines since 2016 as passengers have enjoyed seamless connections and unrivaled service. 

Preez stated, “The expansion of the interline agreement between Qatar Airways and Kenya Airways is a natural next step in the strengthening of our partnership. With our network rebuilding recently surpassing 100 destinations and more than 700 weekly flights, we look forward to working closely with Kenya Airways to support the recovery of international tourism in Kenya."

Kenya Airways Head of Planning and Alliances Martin Gitonga said that KQ’s goal of offering the best to passengers in terms of partners and destinations is well shown by the airline's partnership with Qatar Airways. 

Gitonga said, “In this new environment, we continue our commitment to providing unparalleled safe travel to and from Africa through our Nairobi hub."

Qatar Airways operates 41 international connections across the continent including Liberia, Abidjan, Monrovia, Ivory Coast, 
Mali, Antananarivo, Bamako and Madagascar

 The airline has invested a variety of fuel-efficient twin-engine aircraft, including the largest fleet of Airbus.

It's flights are still operational during the crisis because of the A350 aircraft. 

It provides PPEs for cabin crew and a complimentary protective kit and disposable face shields for passengers to execute onboard safety measures for passengers and cabin crew.
