The TNR flight can also be affected (noticed one day when I was wiating for my NBO-AMS flight), the flight was delayed from 12.30 noon to about 2200.

I see that delays with KQ (albeit not too many) still quite a high possibility.

Hope this helps in your consideration.

Cheers!
Service on KQ short haul is really quite reasonable.

Nairobi. I've never had a bag go missing in the last 15 journeys through. My friend had a single shoe stolen from his bag, though. Delays are of course possible. A few months ago KQ ran two E190s into each other on static testing and I'm not sure whether they're still out of action. It's a risk, but then again, is Air France's reputation on delays much better?
