Kenya Airways Cargo have recently announced launched new flights between Sharjah and Mogadishu, as demand for their services grow.
Flights between Sharjah and Mogadishu through Kenya Airways Cargo began on February 9 and will operate initially on a weekly basis.
Then, by April 2024, this will increase to twice weekly through a partnership formed with Global GSA Cargo in the UAE.
KQ Cargo Director Dick Murianki said the following on the launch of these flights:
“We are delighted to expand our world-class logistics service to underserved markets with a solid product, and we believe in having a direct service complemented by Dubai’s trader, transit, humanitarian, and project-driven traffic.”
“The direct route between UAE and Somalia offers huge demand for air freight transportation, particularly high-tech consumer goods, automotive parts, project cargo, and clothing, which are the most frequently flown goods on the route.”
“Kenya Airways’ has the expertise in the region, and our B737-800F’s apt capacity would be the ideal mix over the long term.”
