Operations on track after fire

A tented airport facility has been erected and contingency plans are in place to accommodate domestic and international arrivals and departures at the Jomo Kenyatta Airport following last week’s devastating fire. This week, Kenya Airways – which reported revenue losses of up to US$4 million as a result of the fire – stepped up its international flights to reduce the backlog. Kenya’s transport and infrastructure minister, Michael Kamau, has been appointed to lead the team that will investigate the cause of the fire.
