Jomo  Kenyatta  International  Airport
Welcome to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, the home of Kenya Airways. The Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) is the largest and busiest airport in East and Central Africa. It serves as a transit hub for major airlines as well as the gateway for visitors to Africa's treasured game parks, cultural heritage, scenic landscapes and business opportunities. The airport also serves as a major cargo center for both inbound and outbound goods.

The JKIA is situated in Nairobi, 20 minutes from the central business district and is served by shuttle services, taxis and other commuter services. Most major hotels  in Nairobi also have their stations at the arrival terminal which may provide transport for their guests and other services.

Shopping , banking, postal and transport facilities and lounges are in excellent condition with even more major and minor terminal developments ongoing to ensure maximum passenger comfort.
Plans are underway to expand the airport. Initially designed for passenger traffic of 2.5 million people per year, the airport currently handles an upwards of 4 million passengers every year. Plans to expand the airport include more parking facilities and more floor space to enable the growth of additional services.

Moi  International  Airport
The airport is located on the Kenyan coast. It is about 10 Km from the City of Mombasa. Moi International Airport grew from what was known as Port Reitz Airport, which was constructed during the Second World War to serve as military airfield accommodating DC-3.

On realizing the tourism potential of the Coast Region, the Government of Kenya decided in the early 70's to expand the Port Reitz airport in order to accommodate larger aircraft that would enable bigger passenger numbers to come to Mombasa.
We have since continued to grow in terms of facilities as well as passenger figures and are currently close 1 million passengers a year with the potential to handle slightly over 2 million passengers a year.

Eldoret  International  Airport
The airport was started in 1995. It is located some 16 kilometres south from Eldoret Town on the Eldoret - Kisumu road.
Eldoret International Airport was built with the vision of achieving accelerated economic growth, through integration and opening up of the Western region to local and international markets. The airport is also expected to promote the exploitation of the rich tourism circuit of Western Kenya, which is largely unexploited.

The airport has two major revenue generating activity: aeronautical and non-aeronautical. The emphasis in EIA revenue is to shift from traditional dependency on aviation revenue to non-aviation revenues.

Currently the airport has three scheduled international cargo flights and several ad hoc freighters per week.
