Africa, as a continent, does not have that many internal flights. Lack of demand and politics. Internal flights can be on local airlines. More flights are to an overseas destinations.
Thanks, that makes some sense. I'm seeing a little more come up through United the more I search (but not JRO and some others). And I found I can get some flights in and out of Africa with American Airlines miles now - just not from Kansas City. But I could go out of Dallas (for example) to CPT and back from NBO. Unfortunately, AA doesn't have a stopover (or whatever United calls it), so I'd lose out a bit on using United here. But it would allow me to use up some of the less valuable (to me) AA miles I have and not use all of my Chase points (to transfer to United). Hmm... Thanks,
