Kenya Airways and South African Airways (SAA) have expressed their intentions to form a pan-African airline, which will be inclusive of other African airlines. This move aims to overcome the challenges of being small airlines operating in highly competitive and complex aviation sectors. The proposed airline will have a larger network and more destinations, which will result in greater profitability and better customer experience. The plans will include focusing on operational efficiency, cost control, and improved customer service, as well as a strengthened capacity for African airlines. This plan is seen as a vital step towards realizing the African Union’s mandate of creating a single aviation market in Africa.
