KQ suspends DRC flights to protest detention of its staff

Kenya Airways has indefinitely suspended flights to and from the Democratic Republic of Congo to protest the detention of its “employees by the Military Intelligence Unit in Kinshasa, Kenya Airways (KQ) is unable to support its flights without personnel effectively.”

Kenya Airways says the flight suspension is effective from 30th April 2024.

The airline says: “The continued detention of its employees has made it difficult for KQ to supervise its operations in Kinshasa, which include customer service, ground handling, cargo activities, and generally ensuring safe, secure, and efficient operations.”
