Tuesday, 16 Dec, 2024 0

Etihad Airways just celebrated the launch of its new service to Nairobi, Kenya.

The 10^th new route launched this year operates four times a week.

The Nairobi launch follows the successful introduction of services to Antalya, Bali, Boston, Jaipur, Kozhikode, Mykonos, Nice, Qassim, and Thiruvananthapuram in 2024.

Looking ahead to 2025, Etihad will continue its expansion with thirteen new destinations: Warsaw and Prague in June; Al Alamein and Atlanta in July; Taipei in September; Medan, Phnom Penh, and Krabi in October; and Tunis, Chiang Mai, Hong Kong, Hanoi, and Algiers in November.

“The introduction of our Nairobi service enhances our growing network while responding to strong travel demand between the UAE and Kenya,” said Arik De, Chief Revenue and Commercial Officer at Etihad Airways.

“This route creates valuable opportunities for both destinations and strengthens the important ties between our regions.”

Nairobi is a leading East African business hub known as the “Green City in the Sun.”

The city uniquely features Nairobi National Park within its boundaries, offers diverse cultural attractions including museums and art galleries, and serves as a gateway to Kenya’s wildlife destinations.
