Kenya Airways launches live TV broadcast service for its aircraft

K enya Airways has re-vamped its inflight enter-

tainment experience with

the introduction of a new inflight television service dubbed KQ

TV. The service will allow passen-

gers watch live news and sports channels while onboard.

The launch of this new service takes cue from the decision by the airline

to rebrand and revamp their cabin

product in the newly acquired B777-300 and B787 aircraft.

“With the ongoing introduction of new and modern fleet of aircraft, we

aim to complement the experience with

an inflight entertainment service that will give our passengers an innovative

new way to enjoy live entertainment

content while on board,” Said Kenya Airways Group Managing Director &

Chief Executive Officer Dr. Titus Nai-

kuni.

Kenya Airways has already embarked

on its second phase of its fleet expan-sion and modernization which saw the

airline receive two 777-300ER and a

787 Dreamliner with five more ex-pected by the end of the year. The

acquisition of these aircraft is expected

to pave way for the introduction of new

SAA to introduce wrapping

baggage as permanent cus-

tomer service feature

A ir Tanzania is in the process of

government would acquire two Dash 8-

400s on a lease/purchase basis with their

delivery due before year-end.

In addition, the carrier will acquire an Embraer-170 and 190 from Embraer

which will be funded through a loan from

the Brazilian Development Bank. The Exim Bank of China will also provide

concession loan funding for the purchase

of two Y12Es from Harbin Aircraft Man-ufacturing Corporation (Harbin), he said.

Currently, Air Tanzanian operates one

Dash 8-300 on domestic services along-side two wet-leased jets - a B737-200Adv.

sourced from South Africa's Star Air and a

CRJ-200 sourced from Kenya's Trident Aviation, used on regional services. Hon.

Tizeba said the arrival of the new aircraft

would allow Air Tanzania to resume flights to Nairobi Jomo Kenyatta, Enteb-

network and now offers more choice

and flexibility to its passengers by

serving hubs while flying directly to 20

destinations in Europe, Asia, Africa,

Australia and the South West Indian
