Thank you so much for allowing me to be apart of your desires to bring more African Americans to your beautiful Country. I am honored to parter with Kenya Airways to pave the way and reconnect us back to a home away from home. Great job Chams Media. Im going to learn that song for the next time.
Yes sis, you are doing an awesome job in promoting Kenya and hopefully East Africa to our brothers and sisters in both US and Canada. Happy Newyear to you.🙏🏽
I flew round trip in August with young kids and the service was stellar! Very impressive! Convenient, friendly n Proffessional staff, smooth flight. I admire Captain Koki hope to meet her some day. Looking forward to fly KQ again in 2022! Pls advertise more!
KQ is always the best. Just can't wait for my grandsons to travel soon to Kenya, their first trip to Kenya, KQ is the one which will bring them home. Kenya yetu juu!!!!
Alex chamwadas longevity and relevance is next to none... Kq really owes this man, cause he just has nothing but plaudits and aplomb for the airline, apo sawa buda...
I can't wait! I grew up in Kenya and growing up, there were no direct flights of any kind. For years we flew Pan Am, which was a 24 hour flight, with several stops along the way. Then we flew BA and KLM and stopped in Europe. This was an improvement, but still not direct. I can't believe I am actually going to go on a direct flight from NYC to Nairobi!
Kenya Airways is the best. The food is good. All the attendants are super nice . The pilot are very nice. And they tend to excel at what other airlines forgot about. Customer Service
Let us be honest KQ even being preferred are a let down..... Almost everyone I know who has travelled by KQ from New York to Kenya last couple of months has had issued with lost luggage and some which has not been found todate as we speak....
Wish we had Kenya Airways coming to Toronto, Canada. I would love to meet Captain Koki Mutungi, first female Pilot in Africa. I have seen her on another channel, Just Planes.
@@explorelondon3695 What is your issue? No one mentioned Ethiopians. I only made a comment about Captain Koki. Yes, she's first Female African Dreamliner pilot. As a Canadian of East African origin, I hope that one day Kenyan Airways will make direct Flights to Canada.
@@aunties5798 No issue, just aviation facts from an aviation purist. Nothing against you personally, but when facts are wrong, sometimes it helps to steer the matter towards the light. While Ethiopian was the first carrier in Africa to receive the 787, it is possible that Captain Kiki is the first 787 driver in Africa although the probability of an Ethiopian female been the first based on entry into service is also plausible but in the absence of actual data, I concur it might just be possible the former is right. It's not really important to me or probably to other readers but being the first 787 pilot in Africa Vs first female 787 are two goal posts far apart. So for arguement sake you are wrong when you state she was the first 787 driver in Africa, it can't be physically possible unless she was flying for Ethiopian Airlines. Much regards, An East African Citizen of the World.
Too expensive compared to Ethiopian airlines. They should work on that tho.Even within Africa, KQ is the most expensive. People traveling from like Accra to Nairobi prefer Ethiopian airlines because of its fair prices.
It's alright, the A350 numbers are slightly better but that said, every aircraft has a purpose in an Airlines fleet...the B788 serves Kenya Airways operations very well.
It's all about following proper etiquette, sometimes just been polite disarms even a wicked heart. Problem with most Green card holders don't realise American Jurisdiction ends once you step into the Aircraft and out of the US airspace.

I have traveled with kenya airways from Nairobi to Holland was the best airline I hoped soon will stopover in Toronto Canada to new York beck from new York to Toronto Canada to Nairobi kenya airways should complete with Ethiopia airlines way Ethiopia are doing good and prize are good kenya airways need to market its self and make big profits look in 2 this kenya airways C .E .O.
Though it’s a marketing clip, it would be very reassuring for KQ to have addressed key challenges experienced by customers since pple that use KQ are almost the same customers frequently. After losing my luggage I sweared never to use KQ as much as I’d love to promote my home airline. Emirates and Ethiopian airways customer service is what has kept them up there.
Yeah but Emirates for now suspended flights from Kenya...and keep in mind, it is not the airways that lost your luggage but groundhandling and they are usually separate from the airline...

It's no different from driving in a car, just faster, expensive, mostly boring between the takeoff and landing but I hope you'll get your chance to experience what's it's like for yourself.

Being claustrophobic, I suffer. Suffering from acrophobia made it worse. Made the mistake of looking out the window and had to take some really deep breaths to calm down. But visiting a new country is always great.

KQ has, sorry let me rephrase, KQ had a lot of potential to compete with or supercede Ethiopian Airlines but the Kenyan curse looms over the airline. Won't go to specifics but hopefully one day when we have a Magufuli attitude and patriotism in most of us Kenyans, then the fortunes of KQ and Kenya can be reinstated to former status. It's heartbreaking to see the KQ cartel clip the airline's wings as they line their pockets for personal gains. That said, this JFK service is a good option for those connecting the Americas and Nairobi.
May I ask you, if am traveling from US or Canada to Kenya, when I was buying ticket I used my American or Canadian passport to fly ,but when I arrive in Kenya can I show my Kenyan passport ? Or they will cause broblem and ask many questions because of the corrupt immigration in Kenya
@@saidibrahim5931 Evening brother, I would assume you don't need a Visa if you travel on the Kenyan passport but if am not mistaken you could apply for a Kenya Visa on your Americas passport on arrival. I could be wrong so best advice I would give is to try and contact your consulate for clarification. If they say you need a Visa, please try and get one to save yourself anxiety and the hassle of dealing with the Immigration. All the best.
This is the summer bunny express. Otherwise its garbage. KQ has pathetic service n some very detached n cold cabin crew. Ps: i am a kenyan n i have used this flight 4 times. Try Emirates. You will be blown away.
We are living in such a digital era. KQ and other airlines need to take advantage of content creators that film their flights and post them to social media instead of telling them not to film onboard. The number of times content creators have been told not to film onboard in this day and age is puzzling. Kenya Airways can hire as many "partners" to promote as many routes as they want but that will not have the same effect and is a drop in the ocean compared to what a travel TH-camr who's audience is already into travel and has an audience of 40K subscribers or more to film themselves onboard can do. TH-camrs are constantly told not to film onboard even though their filming styles are non intrusive and they film only themselves. Move with the times and take advantage of free publicity. No need to hire promoters, partners and ambassadors. That is so 1999. Move with the times guys.
@@JimT1975 it's actually a huge problem on a lot of airlines. People being told to stop recording even when they're just recording themselves. People just refusing to move with the times.
I have never been made to open bags at JKIA and i come home very frequent. They can make you open bags at any airport if you are unlucky to be pulled over for secondary inspection. I was made to open bags in Netherlands at one time, the only airport i have ever been asked to open bags my entire flying life. The way some kenyans behave at JKIA coming from majuu make them target for bag opening. Also if you are carrying too much luggage/bags you will be targeted because they think you are carrying merchandise for sale. Tip, always lock your bags with airport security padlocks, you will look less suspicious.
Direct is best, not rocket science 🤷🏽♂️ Those of us in the UK🇬🇧 and other parts of Europe, are spoilt with direct and near-direct flights to 254 🇰🇪❤️ I always try to fly KQ as much as possible.
@K K Did you know there are many locals on the continent benefiting from the return of the stolen children back to the motherland? You are correct in that property prices often rise where finances and demand comes in (from foreigners, diasporans, any source). However, there’s more than one narrative. It’s easy to adopt the narratives that keep us divided and limited. We fight over scraps when abundance can be shared. I firmly believe that we’re stronger together. Tuko pamoja.
@K K I've seen some of those types of videos but have also directly engaged with good ones. Should we allow the negatives that get the spotlight to define millions? All we heard in the west about Africa for years was poverty, war, illness and dictatorships. We saw the videos. And we believed... that was Africa. Both damaged mind-sets and beautiful souls exist in the AA community. Should we shut the door on our wounded or endure the process; heal and become even stronger together? Tuko pamoja.
Lie this is the worst flight to board.been a Kenyan and having traveled this December with them from Nairobi to dubai I regret every single coin.never again.
It's no different from other carriers but for some reason we Kenyans expect Singapore Airlines service for the SGR ticket price to United Kisumu. The contract between a passenger and the airline is the provision of passage at certain dates which does not guarantee a seat on a flight. Any take off and landing you can walk away from without injuries after getting to your destination is a good thing...that said, the baggage handlers in DXB and NBO will mess up your luggage the same way..I still for the life of me don't understand why people expect Suite service for Economy pay....
Kenya airways is too expensive...also they are not all over the US.....they nerd to go where kenyans live....they need to to Minnesota and Texas....they need to match ethiopian airlines....too much corrupt officials at the advisory board...because they lack marketing.
Starting an airline is more than just a question of want but one of need for the airline, the need to be profitable bearing in mind the economy of scale required. There's also the question of route matrix, let's hypothetically assume KQ can fly to most of the destinations you've mentioned, where does traffic eminate within the catchment areas in the US and where does that traffic terminate?. Bear in mind the ME3 have an extensive route in African than KQ and probably only behind MS and ET..it would be nice to serve multiple cities in the USA but it's not practically possible. However you can still fly KQ from the cities through JFK by Delta Codeshare..as for matching Ethiopian, we are light years behind. ET runs an airline, flight/cabin training, MRO, catering, dedicated freighter service and an extensive route network in Europe, Asia and a considerable presence in the Americas...just check Flightradar 24 and compare the two airlines from 0015hrs East Africa time, the numbers speak for themselves. Regards.

They are rude and their customer service is bad very rude people am not traveling with them again. Their menu has nothing saying kenyan viti ngumu kama stools
This route made the late magufuli so mad that he bought planes just to compete with Kenya. It's one thing to buy planes and getting approval is another...
Uganda is also awake in other areas, the country is always fertile, lots of matoke to eat. My people are starving in northern Kenya, without even water to drink and the govt doesn't care about them and this goes on year after year.🇰🇪🇺🇬
This torch belongs to Ethiopian who operate an airline, catering, cabin & flight training, Maintenance Repair Overhaul (MRO). Their route network is also extensive compared to KQ. The later is a cartel like KPLC etc etc and it's therefore run as a typical Kenyan personal business..
@@Jimmykarinski You are spot on but sadly this is not an isolated case unfortunately. We Kenyans are so enslaved in principle and practise. We think sounding like a Mzungu is a measure of superior aptitude, gentrification or higher standing in society. Unfortunately I see more Wazungus begging on the streets, hooked on alcohol and substances but also unable to express themselves in writing their mother tongue than foreigners. It therefore makes me wonder whether the Mzungu ways are overrated. Over 89% of Masters and PHD candidates for instance in the US constitutes of foreign students which means the probability of Gikuyu accents and such in academia and corporate world is quite high out of Kenya...but then we Kenyans pick an American accent in Mumbai after two months....
@@explorelondon3695 That is your judgment no one get paid to teach accents. It’s the bottom of the food chain of man’s problem you are the kind that try to sell it like it’s an idea. And by the way English is the operating system of the world deal with it. Followed by Chinese.

Bear in mind the ME3 have an extensive route in African than KQ and probably only behind MS and ET..it would be nice to serve multiple cities in the USA but it's not practically possible. However you can still fly KQ from the cities through JFK by Delta Codeshare..as for matching Ethiopian, we are light years behind. ET runs an airline, flight/cabin training, MRO, catering, dedicated freighter service and an extensive route network in Europe, Asia and a considerable presence in the Americas...just check Flightradar 24 and compare the two airlines from 0015hrs East Africa time, the numbers speak for themselves. Regards.
I thought this flight was canceled
KQ is expensive & overrated. I flew the inaugural flight on 28 October 2018.
It's no different from US carriers but for some reason we Kenyans expect Singapore Airlines service for the SGR ticket price to United Kisumu. The contract between a passenger and the airline is the provision of passage at certain dates which does not guarantee a seat on a flight. Any take off and landing you can walk away from without injuries after getting to your destination is a good thing...that said, the baggage handlers in JFK and NBO will mess up your luggage the same way..
The route is good but the customer service is seriously awful 😞. You pay for it and get a below par service back.

They never refund people to hell with them
Good marketing though.
They are rude and their customer service is bad very rude people am not traveling with them again. Their menu has nothing saying kenyan viti ngumu kama stools
This route made the late magufuli so mad that he bought planes just to compete with Kenya. It's one thing to buy planes and getting approval is another...
And you hire almost all technical staff from abroad
Never again!
That's so great to kenya and African atlarge but Uganda 🇺🇬 my mother country whe're you??!! You should wakeup
Uganda is also awake in other areas, the country is always fertile, lots of matoke to eat. My people are starving in northern Kenya, without even water to drink and the govt doesn't care about them and this goes on year after year.🇰🇪🇺🇬
KQ THE PRIDE OF AFRICA
This torch belongs to Ethiopian who operate an airline, catering, cabin & flight training, Maintenance Repair Overhaul (MRO). Their route network is also extensive compared to KQ. The later is a cartel like KPLC etc etc and it's therefore run as a typical Kenyan personal business..
They used to be but not anymore. Ethiopian Airways has surpassed them. I'm still patriotic though.🇰🇪🇰🇪
Detected a fake twang na huyo kangethe
Bothered by useless things
Huwezi saidika wewe,that’s all you took from the video?
😅😅😅👌
@@Jimmykarinski You are spot on but sadly this is not an isolated case unfortunately. We Kenyans are so enslaved in principle and practise. We think sounding like a Mzungu is a measure of superior aptitude, gentrification or higher standing in society. Unfortunately I see more Wazungus begging on the streets, hooked on alcohol and substances but also unable to express themselves in writing their mother tongue than foreigners. It therefore makes me wonder whether the Mzungu ways are overrated. Over 89% of Masters and PHD candidates for instance in the US constitutes of foreign students which means the probability of Gikuyu accents and such in academia and corporate world is quite high out of Kenya...but then we Kenyans pick an American accent in Mumbai after two months....
@@explorelondon3695 That is your judgment no one get paid to teach accents. It’s the bottom of the food chain of man’s problem you are the kind that try to sell it like it’s an idea. And by the way English is the operating system of the world deal with it. Followed by Chinese.
😭👍🇺🇸

My country but you aré so expansive,poor management.Always loss.Not good to say this but I say it.
I agree with you, KQ is the worst airline ever, you'd better take your money to Ethiopian Emirates or Turkish airlines.
