Jambojet recorded a six per cent higher average of on-time-performance (OTP) in the two months after recording 84 per cent in August.
OTP is an industry benchmark calculated based on flights taking off and landing within 15 minutes of the scheduled time.
Jambojet achieved a 90 per cent on-time-performance (OTP) in September and October mainly driven by a new fleet, records show.
The low-cost carrier recorded a six per cent higher average of OTP in the two months after recording 84 per cent in August.
OTP is an industry benchmark calculated based on flights taking off and landing within 15 minutes of the scheduled time.
“We are well over our target of 80 per cent which is considerably better than the industry average. Without a doubt, this is a very good sign as we go into the peak festive season,” said Jambojet chief executive Willem Hondius.
“Our investment in the two new Bombardier Dash 8 Q400 aircrafts has enabled us to deliver a very reliable flight schedule across the country and live up to the expectation of customers.”
The airline has maintained an average OTP of 85 per cent in the past seven months, Mr Hondius said.
Jambojet has in its nearly four years of operation in Kenya increased its routes from four to six, with increased frequency of flights due to fleet expansion.
It currently operates 75 flights per week on its domestic routes from Nairobi to Mombasa, Eldoret, Kisumu, Malindi and Ukunda.
The airline, which has a code-share agreement with Kenya Airways #ticker:KQ for domestic travel, expects delivery of two new aircraft later this year.
