considerations. Our General
Strategy An important
consistent trend about commercial aviation is that
it is a fiercely competitive and highly volatile
industry, in which fortunes shift continuously. As
the drive towards a free, converging and global
market gathers momentum, competition within the
airline industry is expected to intensify.
Increasingly, open skies are therefore likely to
impact on yields, and extraordinary profits will
increasingly be an exception. Given this
potentially turbulent environment, the key to
survival in the industry lies in whether an airline
is able to clearly anticipate the patterns of
change coming, the underlying forces driving these
changes, and above all the ability to align its
strategies to respond to a changing business and
aero-political environment. With this in mind,
Kenya Airways is committed to investing in the
development of world-class capacity in information
gathering, analysis and interpretation so as to
facilitate faster but correct business
decision-making. This way, Kenya Airways hopes to
enhance ability for rapid response to
opportunities, threats and challenges in the market
place. In concrete
terms, in the next 10 to 20 years, Kenya Airways
aims to grow into a decidedly dominant carrier in
Africa with notable presence in Asia, Europe and
the Americas, while operating a modern fleet of 30
to 40 aircraft. Kenya Airways intends to forge
strong partnerships and be a respected member of a
global airline alliance. Our
Organization Our organization
structure comprises of eight (8) departments each
headed by an executive director reporting to the
Group Managing Director. The departments

Outlook We continue to
focus on profitable expansion of our network

alliances with other carriers. Sustainable
improvement in yield will be pursued through a
combination of a new Revenue Management System and

emphasis on greater productivity, costs restraints
