Kenya Airways has opened a Euro Account to offer guests more payment options at its sales outlets in Kenya.

This brings to three the currencies accepted by Kenya Airways as a means of payment at its outlets countrywide. They are the Euro, the USdollar and the Kenya shilling.

“We have opened a Euro Account to offer our guests more flexibility for payment options at all our sales outlets in Kenya. We want to offer our guests choices that enable them to pay in either the Kenya Shilling, Euro or the US Dollar,”  Managing Director and CEO Sebastian Mikosz said.

Due to the increasing number of multinational corporations and the foreign missions based in Kenya, opening a Euro Account provides a suitable payment solution to many Kenya Airways guests.

The introduction of this additional payment option will make it more convenient for guests from the European Union and increase sales for the Pride of Africa.

According to the Economic Survey 2018, a majority of the 250,000 visitors who toured Kenya from the European Union, last year, were from Germany, France, Italy, Poland, Romania, Netherlands and Belgium.

Kenya Airways, a member of the Sky Team Alliance, is a leading African airline flying to 52 destinations worldwide, 43 of which are in Africa and carries over four million passengers annually.

It takes pride for being in the forefront of connecting Africa to the World and the World to Africa through its hub at the new ultra-modern Terminal 1A at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi. Kenya Airways celebrated 40 years of operations in January 2017 and was named Africa Leading Airline 2017 by the World Travel Awards.
