Etihad Airways Resumes Scheduled Flights to Nairobi

It's time to get that safari over with. Etihad Airways is resuming daily flights to Nairobi, Kenya on 1 May, 2024. It'll be operated with an Airbus A320 featuring Business and Economy cabins as well as the airline’s award-winning service.

The new route will connect Nairobi with Etihad’s global network, and will help foster important cultural and economic ties between the UAE and the East African powerhouse.

The flights will restore commercial non-stop passenger connections between the two cities, and guests from Kenya will be able to connect with Etihad flights to the GCC, the US, Europe, India and South-East Asia.

The link will further stimulate cross-business and trade opportunities between the UAE and the growing Kenyan economy.

Nairobi has an exciting cultural scene, and is one of the major centres of modern African music.

The city is also a stepping stone to enjoy Kenya’s legendary safari country, not least the world-famous Masai Mara National Reserve, where lucky visitors can view ‘the big five:’ African elephants, rhinoceros, Cape buffalo, leopards and of course lions.

For East African travellers, the new Nairobi route presents stimulating opportunities to explore Abu Dhabi's cultural gems and enjoy its famed hospitality.

From the awe-inspiring Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque to the grandeur of the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the city offers an enchanting mix of modernity and tradition, all flavoured by the warmth of Emirati hospitality.

Tickets are now available for booking on etihad.com, offering travellers the opportunity to experience the world-class service and hospitality of Etihad on this exciting new route to Nairobi.
