About Kenya Airways
Kenya Airways (IATA code: KQ) is the flag carrier of Kenya, based at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, and the first sub-Saharan African airline to join a global alliance.
It operates a nonstop route between New York JFK and Nairobi — roughly 15 hours — which is the only direct link between the United States and East Africa. That saves a European or Gulf connection entirely.
Nairobi functions as a hub for East and Southern Africa, with onward connections to the safari circuit, Zanzibar, Kilimanjaro and Southern Africa. Our agents can ticket those regional segments together with the long-haul leg.
