Skyward Airlines

Skyward Airlines, formerly known as Skyward Express, is a Kenyan airline headquartered in Nairobi that flies scheduled domestic and regional routes. It began as a charter operator and has grown into one of the country's main local carriers, connecting Nairobi with coastal, northern and western destinations.

The airline's network links Nairobi with Mombasa, Malindi, Ukunda for Diani Beach, Lamu, Garissa, Wajir, Lodwar, Kakamega and other towns, and it has added flights to Dar es Salaam in Tanzania. Its fleet of turboprop and regional jet aircraft is suited to shorter runways, making it useful for both business travellers and holidaymakers heading to the beach. It also runs a parcels service and offers a lounge for some passengers.

Tickets can be booked online, by phone or through dedicated booking offices in each destination. Schedules, fares and offers are listed on the Skyward Airlines website.
