The main runway at Wilson Airport has been reopened for daytime flights after nearly a six-month closure for rehabilitation works, bringing major relief for airlines that had been hit by congestion during the period. The congestion forced some carriers to shift part of their operations to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).
The airport manager, Kenya Airports Authority (KAA), has allowed airlines to resume operations on the main runway 07 from Wednesday, July 29, 2026, between 6.30am and 6.30pm after a lengthy closure since the end of January 2026.
