Passengers travelling this holiday season through Kenyan Airways may have their flights interrupted for about two weeks.
The company announced on Friday that some of its aeroplanes may remain grounded for the period owing to challenges in acquiring aircraft spare parts.
KQ Group Managing Director and CEO Allan Kilavuka in a statement explained that due to the global challenge, the airline would extend grounding time for flights as a safety precaution.
“Our current flight schedule may experience disruptions in the coming weeks mainly due to challenges in the aircraft spare parts global supply chain. These challenges are leading to extended ground time of our aircraft for maintenance,” Kilavuka said.
