Efforts to bring back the transport and tourism sector back on its feet again from the global COVID 19 hit have somewhat started bearing fruits gradually thanks to local chartered airlines operating in Kenya such as Jambo jet.
From a traditional perspective, most Kenyans and rather Africans in general have been held back from exploring their own country and continent from the high cost of air travel.
An intervention to this problem has recently been found by opening up the aviation sector enabling small planes operated locally such as Jambo jet that offers relatively affordable ticket prices for flights connecting Nairobi with the rest of the Kenyan cities ; Kisumu, Eldoret, Mombasa and by extension other areas regionally Kampala, Kigali and Daresalam opening up the cities for African travellers who are now better able to tap into more business and leisure opportunities with more affordable travel.
It is imperative however, to understand that comparative to other nations outside Africa because of the relative lower number of travellers, the cost of flight in Africa is yet to lower to the level that it ought to get.
Mismanagement in the airline sector and the prevailing volatile changes in fuel prices have also been a big derailment fowards the quest of lowering air transport cost and flight tickets on the continent.
A prime example however, is being well set in Ethiopia for other aviators to follow in the way of success of the Ethiopian airlines that has seen tremendous growth and success, surmounting the challenges that are external or even internal to becoming the most preffered airline for most African travellers on the continent and the diaspora.
Jambo jet on the other hand has also been very consistent and reliable travel provider which plays a key role in development in East African larget economy: Kenya.
