    On the 8th of June, 2020, KQ2319 departed from Nairobi's JKIA, to Sharjah International Airport in UAE. It was a special flight for Captain Peter Maranga as he took to the flight deck with his son, Emmanuel Maranga who served as his First Officer.
    Captain Maranga retired having spent a remarkable 31 years with Kenya Airways, during which he accumulated over 17,000 flying hours.

    As a black man am extremely proud of Kenyan Airways for investing in their own people. I would see KQ at JFK and I’d smile with pride.✊🏾

    The troubles at KQ do not really reflect the industry, dedication and patriotisms of these Kenyans. Most Kenyans mean very well for the country and where they work. KQ is a national pride. The son here is still awed by his dad's precence.It shows he's been a great daddy. I just wish I could say the same
