Kenya Airways [KQ] has resumed daily flights to New York as it moves to cash in on growing demand for air travel on the route.
The carrier had increased the flight frequency on the route to five times per week from three last year in December, citing high passenger bookings.
The higher demand is a positive signal for the tourism sector, for which the US remains the largest overseas source market accounting for 16 percent of the 870,465 visitors into the country last year.
The carrier has also increased frequencies on routes such as Paris to daily flights from five times a week, Madagascar to nine times per week from seven, Comoros to five times weekly from four, Amsterdam to five times every week from four, Johannesburg to 24 times from four weekly and London to 14 times from 12 times.
