Wilson Airport based airlines resume flights

BEACH AND BUSH FLIGHTS RESUME AFTER MOVEMENT RESTRICTIONS ARE LIFTED BY KENYAN GOVERNMENT

(Posted 04th May 2021)

Wilson Airport based Beach and Bush airlines, like Safarilink and Air Kenya, have resumed services across Kenya’s national parks and to coast destinations like Lamu, Malindi, Vipingo, Mombasa and Ukunda / Diani.
This followed the lifting of the movement ban into and out of Nairobi county and surrounding counties.

Wrote Air Kenya to ATCNews:

Resumption Of Domestic Flights
Warm greetings from Airkenya!

Following the presidential directive as well as a follow-up authorisation by the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) released on 1st May 2021, Airkenya is pleased to inform you that we have fully resumed our operations.

We shall be offering our services from our usual exclusive terminal at Wilson Airport, Nairobi, to the following destinations:

Serengeti (via Kilimanjaro)
Kilimanjaro
Entebbe (via Kisumu)
Maasai Mara
Amboseli
Nanyuki
Loisaba
Lewa
Meru
Samburu

The Wilson Airport based airlines can now also serve their regional destinations again
in Zanzibar, Tanzania mainland and Uganda once again.
The opening should boost easy connectivity between Kenya’s national parks by air which
previously posed challenges and reportedly kept some international tourists away
as a result of logistical challenges.
Happy Landings.
