    Air France/KLM boost Africa capacity

    The Air France and KLM Group are replacing their Boeing 777 on the Nairobi route with a wider Boeing 747-400 aircraft during this year’s summer schedule.

    They say they have increased long haul capacity this year by 5.4% compared with last summer, and by 4.3% on the medium haul network. Capacity from Europe to Latin America will increase by 11.4% and Asia up by 7.3%, and to North America by 10.1%. In a statement, the Group’s Media Relations Manager, Mr Bart Koster, says Africa will see a lesser increase capacity, up 3.1%.

    A Boeing 767 aircraft, which has been operating on the Abuja-Kano and Entebbe routes, has been replaced by an Airbus A330. Entebbe will see an increase of frequencies from three times to five times weekly.
