Published on July 29, 2019, Jambojet, a regional low-cost carrier, is set to increase its frequencies to Mombasa, Ukunda (Diani), and Malindi in August 2019.

As a result of this expansion, the airline will operate 48 weekly flights to Mombasa, up from the current 40, while Ukunda and Malindi will have three additional weekly flights, moving the frequency to twice daily.

According to Jambojet CEO, Mr. Allan Kilavuka, the increased frequencies are in response to customer demand for convenience, safety, and reliability in operations.

The additional frequencies will see the airline offer an extra 23% seat capacity to the Coastal destinations, with Kisumu, Eldoret, and Entebbe retaining 21, 20, and 10 weekly flights respectively.

The local market for flights has seen increased competition as more Kenyans embrace flight travel over the April, August, and December holidays.
