Kenya Airways, the country’s public private partnership national flag carrier, announced on Thursday that it was starting direct cargo flights from the country’s main port (and number two) city of Mombasa to international destinations. The airline’s freight operation is known as KQ Cargo, KQ being the airline’s International Air Transport Association code. The introduction of this service followed discussions between the airline, the Mombasa County government (Kenya is divided into counties, not provinces) and coastal region fresh produce sector stakeholders. The aim is to transport the region’s fresh produce exports more rapidly and efficiently.
