Recently founded in 2013 by a group of local pilots and investors, Skyward Express has grown its operations from a single aircraft to an impressive fleet of 11 planes. Skyward Express initially only operated ad-hoc charters within Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Ethiopia, Somalia and South Sudan. Today, it operates scheduled passenger flights between seven cities in Kenya, as well as continuing with ad-hoc passenger and cargo charters within Africa and internationally.<\/p>\n

In addition to scheduled passenger and cargo services, the airline also provides private charter services, humanitarian and relief services, evacuations and ACMI leasing.<\/p>\n

As an established airline, Skyward Express prides itself on quality service, flight safety and reliability, ensuring businesses and passengers are offered the best experience.<\/p>\n
