The London Stock Exchange-listed airline is introducing daily flights from Dar es Salaam and Kilimanjaro to the JKIA at prices that are relatively cheaper than KQ and Precision Air that currently serve the routes. Kenya Airways owns a 41.23 per cent stake in the Tanzanian registered Precision Air. Fastjet will begin its daily flights from Dar es Salaam at 9.50am and land in Nairobi at 11.10am hoping to woo passengers with its low cost model that could determine who wins in the game of customer numbers. Fastjet’s Airbus A319 aircraft with 156-passenger capacity will then fly back to Julius Nyerere International Airport at 2.40pm for the one hour, 25 minutes journey.
