Two new airlines, Trans World Airlines and Sabena started to operate to and from the Nairobi Airport. This makes it possible for travellers from Kenya to have easy connexions at Geneva by travelling Trans World Airlines, with a connexion to central Europe through Vienna, by travelling with Sabena. During the yea.r, the national airline, East African Airways operated their Super VC lOs on international flights, which included a new route to Bangkok. The Cornets owned by the airline mainly operated on continental routes. There was a decrease of 64.2 per cent in military aircraft movements over the previous year because the oil airlift to Zambia bad ceased. The detailed percentage increases in the activities at Nairobi Airport is as shown below: Civil aircraft movements 1.8 Passengers handled 19.0 Mail 12.4 Freight 42.3 Aviation fuel uplift 7.4 The above figures reflect that Nairobi Airport is growing rapidly. The details of the growth rates are indicated in the appendices to the report. PART 1-TRAFFIC DEVELOPMENT Aircraft Movements A total of 25,719 movements were recorded at Nairobi Airport during the year 1967. Out of the recorded movements. 24,009 were scheduled and other civil movements, and 1,710 were military movements. For comparison purposes, this was 9.3 percent below the previous year. The charter flights increased tremendously during the year under review. The recorded movements were 2,371 , thus giving an average of seven movements per day. Graph I shows a survey of aircraft movements (civil and military), for the years 1965-1967. Table l (a) is the general survey of movements according to type of aircraft during the same period, with a summary at Table 1 (b). Table 1 (c) shows the movements according to type of flight.

Despite numerous studies in this area, interest has not faded away. To this end, the objectives of this study were to identify the determinants of strategic alternatives to better understand what drives airlines into such alliances and to identify factors that affect the performance of the alliances. The research was done through descriptive survey design, which involved all airlines with scheduled flights in and out of Kenya totaling thirty six (42). The target population was CEOs or senior managers within the airlines, which had response rate of 92.7%.

  • 22 the East African Directorate of Civil Aviation
    NOT FOR PUBLICATION INSTITUTE OF CURRENT WORLD AFFAIRS B- 67 Wsshlngton, D.C. ast Africa High Commission: November 2, 195/ (22) The ast African Directorate of Civil Aviation Mr. Walter S. Roers Institute of Current World Affairs 522 Fifth Avenue New York 6, New York Dear Mr. Rogers The considerable size of Best Afr, ica, with populated centers separated by wide tracts of rugged, poorly watered country through which road and rail routes are built with difficulty and then provide only slow service, gives air transport an important position in the economy of the area. Access to ast Africa from rope and elsewhere in the world is aso greatly enhanced by air transport, which need not follow the deviating contours of the continent. Businesses with b:'enches throughout @set Africa need fast assenger services to carry executives on supervisory visits; perishable commodities, important items for repair of key machlner, and )ivestock for breeding purposes provide further traffic; and a valuable tourist traffic is much dependent upon air transport. The direction and coordination of civil aviation, to help assure the quality and amplitude of aerodromes, aeraio directiona and communications methods, and aircraft safety standards, is an important responsibility which logically fsIs under a central authority. This central authority is the Directorate of Oivil Aviation, a department of the ast Africa High Commission. The Directorate, as an interterritorlal service already in existence, came under the administration of the High Oommisslon on its effective date of inception, January I, 98, an more specifically under the Commissioner for Transport, one of the four principal executive officers of the High Commission, on May I, 199.

    Journal of Air Transportation Vol. 11, No. 1 -2006 THE DEVELOPMENT OF JOMO KENYATTA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AS A REGIONAL AVIATION HUB Evaristus M. Irandu University of Nairobi Nairobi, Kenya Dawna L. Rhoades Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Daytona Beach, Florida ABSTRACT Air transportation plays an important role in the social and economic development of the global system and the countries that seek to participate in it. As Africa seeks to take its place in the global economy, it is increasingly looking to aviation as the primary means of connecting its people and goods with the world. It has been suggested that Africa as a continent needs to move toward a system of hubs to optimize its scarce resources. Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, Kenya, is one of the airports in the eastern region of Africa that is seeking to fill this role. This paper discusses the prospects for success and the challenges that it will need to overcome, including projections through 2020 for the growth in passenger and cargo traffic. _____________________________________________________________________________ Evaristus M. Irandu received his Ph.D. in Transport Geography from the University of Nairobi. He is a Senior Lecturer and formerly, the Chairman of the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies in the University of Nairobi. He teaches Economic and Transport Geography, International Tourism and Tourism Management, at both undergraduate and graduate level. His research interests include: aviation planning, liberalization of air transport, non-motorized transport, urban transport, international tourism and ecotourism.

More information on the Transportation Research Forum can be found on the Web at www.trforum.org. OPENING AFRICAN SKIES: THE CASE OF AIRLINE INDUSTRY LIBERALIZATION IN EAST AFRICA by Evaristus M. Irandu The three member states of the East African Community (EAC) have made great efforts in modernizing their air transport industry in order to meet the increased demand for international tourism and horticultural export trade. The policy adopted by the sub-region, at independence, to regulate the airline industry was the bilateralism approach with emphasis on reciprocity. Such a policy became a bottleneck in the development of the air transport industry in the sub-region. It became apparent that the EAC member states needed efficient air services and not airlines that served mainly as status symbols. However, the last decade witnessed the liberalization of the aviation sector in the sub-region. This liberalization process is part of a proactive policy to encourage global investment in the sub-region.
