Kenya Airways #ticker:KQ passengers flying to Sierra Leone will have to pay $80 (Sh8,000) extra for their return tickets after the government introduced a new tax to pay for security equipment installed at the country’s main airport.

This is after all airlines operating in the West African state were ordered to collect a new security fee ($40 (Sh4,000 one way) from their passengers at the point of ticket purchase effective April 1.
