LCC Jambojet plans Africa expansion with more Q400s
Kenya Airways LCC subsidiary Jambojet plans to receive 4 more Bombardier Q400s in 2019 under the leadership of new CE Allan Kilavuka. “ Kilavuka said:. “That’s a doubling of our fleet. We’ll use it for regional expansion.” The former General Electric executive became the airline’s CE in January, succeeding founding CE Willem Hondius, who held the position for 5 years before returning to KLM Royal Dutch Airlines as senior advisor for alliance development. The four additional aircraft are scheduled to arrive in July, August, September and November. Kilavuka said Jambojet hopes to add flights to Bujumbura (Burundi), Goma (Congo), Juba (South Sudan), Kigali (Rwanda) and Zanzibar (Tanzania). “What has stifled our growth a little bit is the speed at which we’re getting the rights to fly to some of these places,” he said. <br/>
