Kenya Airways delays use of Boeing 787 Dreamliner on Accra route | Kenya Airways has pushed back the date for the deployment of one of its Boeing 787 Dreamliners on the Accra route.

The wide body aircraft was scheduled to start serving the Nairobi-Accra route starting this June, but an incident involving one of the Nairobi-based airline’s aircraft in the US has forced a change in plans.

The commencement date, has now been pushed back by a month, George Kamal, Chief Operating Officer, Kenya Airways, told AviationGhana on the sidelines of the recent IATA AGM and World Air Transport Summit, held in Dubai and hosted by Emirates.
