Kigali gets easier connections

KLM is to introduce a direct flight from Amsterdam to Kigali, capital of Rwanda, from the start of the winter season.  It will be an extension of the airline’s existing Entebbe operation and become the airline’s 64th intercontinental destination.  The service will operate five times per week using Airbus A330-200 with 30 in World Business Class and 213 in Economy Class.  Together with Skyteam partner Kenya Airways, KLM will offer Kigali as the fifth destination served directly in East Africa, along with Nairobi, Entebbe, Kilimanjaro and Dar es Salaam.  KLM-Kenya Airways operates a total of 41 weekly flights between East Africa and Europe.  There are no direct Kigali flights from Heathrow. www.klm.com
