I'm the exact opposite. I actively seek to avoid Nairobi in favour of Addis. The passenger experience (especially if you are *G or in Cloud Nine) on Ethiopian is significantly better than on Kenya Airways, both on ground and in the air. And ET blows KQ out of the water in terms of reliability. I can't even remember the last time I had a KQ trip that wasn't affected by a delay, cancellation or other hiccup.
