Following Kenya’s approval for Category One status by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in April 2017 and Jomo Kenyatta International Airport’s elevation to the status of a Last Point of Departure (LPD), the stage is now set for Kenya Airways (KQ) to launch its inaugural direct flight to the US on October 28.

KQ will be flying daily from Nairobi to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport.
