Air freight cost has dropped by at least 15 per cent between Mogadishu and Nairobi following the resumption of direct flights to Somalia last year. Airline operators say they have had to lower the charges of hauling cargo in bid to pass the benefit of direct flights to shippers.
Astral Aviation has, for instance, slashed the cost from $2.20 (Sh223.8) previously to $1.95 (Sh161.75) per kilogramme.
