National carrier, Kenya Airways, on Monday 12 November 2018, announced it will commence daily flights to Somali’s capital, Mogadishu, beginning on Thursday.

The airline, which begun its non-stop daily flights to New York two weeks ago, said that it launched the Somalia route, following demands for travel, mainly by traders to the country through Nairobi.

Kenya Airways CEO, Sebastian Mikosz, said that the daily flight is aimed at meeting the growing travel demand by Somali travellers, government and non-government officials and a growing number of entrepreneurs from Kenya and around the region.
