4x weekly KUL-NBO flights. Not exactly a stylish way to fly to Kenya, but I imagine this will be far cheaper than any of the other available options.

Interesting. Distance wise, very similar to SYD-HKT, so definitely in the mid range of the long haul LCC flights.

Decent option for business (if their flat beds remain cheap). Not sure of the game plan though. Hardly a low cost tourist destination, and I can’t imagine there’s a lot of business or VFR to warrant a direct service.
