The Market:
The outbound market from Kenya to overseas destinations and the rest of Africa continues to show a good growth pattern. Kenya is a prime market for South Africa with 45,000 Arrivals in 2013 plus thousands of expats resident in Kenya who visit South Africa on business and holidays. I guess the total arrivals from Kenya to be close to 60,000 pax per annum. The expatriate and Diplomatic communities and the United Nations Agencies headquartered in Nairobi represent a major business and leisure travel market opportunity with the added potential of significant conference business.
TANZANIA is fast becoming a key market for Southern African countries. In fact during 2013 more Tanzanians visited South Africa than Kenyan citizens. Tanzania arrivals to SA have increased by 25% in 2013
