Key Highlights

Kenya Airways (KQ) is facing renewed operational disruptions due to difficulties in sourcing aircraft engines and parts, resulting in at least five planes being grounded and significantly impacting its passenger capacity.

  • The grounded fleet, comprising three Embraer jets and two Boeing 787 Dreamliners, represents an estimated 18% reduction in KQ's available seats.
  • George Kamal, Acting Group Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of KQ, attributed the delays to global supply chain issues, with engines expected back between June 19 and July 15.
  • The airline, which reported a net loss of Sh17.1 billion in 2025, hopes to return most grounded jets to operation by next month and restore its full fleet by year-end, partly by re-introducing a leased Boeing 777-300ER.
