The expanded schedule will result in nearly 19,000 seats each month on fast jet flights between the two cities, providing travelers with more convenient travel options at affordable fares.
This far, the impact of fast-jet flights to and from Kenya has already been substantial, with other airlines flying between the two countries reducing fares by as much as 40 per cent.
