By THE CITIZEN More by this AuthorIn a tit-for-tat move, the Tanzania Civil Aviation Authority (TCAA) has suspended all Kenya Airways (KQ) passenger flights between Nairobi and Dar es Salaam with effect from January 22, 2024. Kenya Airways operates 33 scheduled flights per week between Nairobi and Dar es Salaam. The sudden suspension of KQ flights is expected to significantly impact passengers travelling between the two countries. In August 2020, Tanzania banned KQ flights for a brief period after Kenya excluded Tanzanians from a list of countries whose citizens could enter without quarantine restrictions. Both Tanzania and Kenya stand to lose from this disruption, particularly the tourism and business sectors.
