Touchdown: Airlink’s First Flight to Kenya Lands in Nairobi


Airlink, Southern Africa’s premier airline, has commenced scheduled daily flights between Johannesburg and Nairobi, Kenya. The inaugural flight was operated today, making Airlink the first private airline on the route.


Airlink’s entry into the SA-Kenya market now provides greater choices for business and leisure travellers flying between the two major regional markets.

The new service schedule is designed to offer optimal connectivity through Airlink’s Johannesburg hub, with flights to and from destinations within South Africa, throughout Southern Africa and worldwide through Airlink’s constellation of partner carriers, which includes many of the leading long-haul global carriers.


Airlink operates comfortable and efficient 98-seat Embraer E190 jetliners on the new service.

“We are excited to add Kenya to Airlink’s comprehensive sub-Saharan route network. It is an important, but under-served, route between two major economic hubs and which, since 2019 until today, offered no competition.  


Airlink’s entry on the route should be seen in the context of efforts by South Africa and Kenya to bolster bilateral tourism, trade and economic ties. Our competitive and convenient flights will promote tourism in both markets by letting travellers take advantage of the visa-free requirements for Kenyans visiting South Africa and South Africans wanting to visit Kenya,” explained Airlink CEO and Managing Director, Rodger Foster.

Nairobi is Airlink’s latest East African destination, alongside Dar es Salaam and Entebbe. Flights on the route will operate daily at these times:


Flight 4Z 070 departs Johannesburg at 09.40, and arrives Nairobi 14.45. Flight 4Z 071 departs Nairobi at 15.45, and arrives Johannesburg at 19.05.


Customers wanting to travel on these Airlink routes can book and manage their trips on flyairlink.com, Airlink’s smartphone app or through travel agents.


Onboard


Airlink’s premium Business Class and great value Economy Class services are available on the route.


Airlink’s intra-continental Business Class service on its state-of-the-art Embraer E-jets features wide seats arranged in a two-plus-one abreast configuration with plenty of legroom between each row. Service includes complimentary meals and beverages, a 30kg check-in luggage allowance and priority boarding. 

Airlink’s Economy Class fares include 20kg free checked luggage and a 15kg sporting equipment allowance. Onboard, customers receive a complimentary light meal, refreshments, generous leg room and a choice of aisle or window seat.

Wow! Stunning! Hilton seems to be taking Africa by storm. Just a couple of years back, they opened the first ever in Eswatini.

Thank you for sharing such a detailed review about ethiopian airlines in your post. I am an avid traveller and keep reading flight reviews to assess the options available. Your review particularly drew my attention because you have shared so many pictures to capture every aspect of the flight experience. It is a very nice effort.

I am really tempted to book the next ethiopian airlines ticket and relive your journey. The pictures shared with the post also reflect that you truly enjoyed the travel. Great post! I also like the fact that you have covered nuances about the food and entertainment service through the pictures. It helps people know what to expect on their travel by this airline.
