On May 10, 2022, East African Safari Air Express marked its entry into the Lodwar market with the launch of direct flights from Wilson Airport in Nairobi.
The airline's decision to operate three weekly morning flights is aimed at catering to the growing number of travelers on the Northern circuit. The flights will depart Wilson at 7 am, arriving in Lodwar at 8:15 am, before departing Lodwar at 8:30 am to arrive in Nairobi at 9:45 am.
Passengers can expect an introductory fare of KSh6,950 one-way, which is cheaper compared to the airline's competitors on the route. According to Beverley Hooper, the firm's marketing manager, the increased demand for flights to Lodwar was the primary reason for launching these services.
The airline will deploy a Dash8 Q400 on the route, which can carry up to 50 passengers on a single trip.
