Continental to fly new york Cairo Africa route
Continental Airlines will launch nonstop flights between new york city Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) and Cairo International Airport (CAI), Egypt, beginning May 18, 2011, subject to government approval.

Egyptair and its regional airline partners offer service to 41 destinations in Egypt, Africa and the Middle East, including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Damascus, Istanbul, Aswan, Jeddah and Johannesburg.
The flight will be timed to provide convenient North American connections at Continental’s new york Newark Liberty hub to the West Coast as well as to 87 other cities throughout the U.S., Canada and Latin America.
Continental will operate the approximately 5,600-mile flight with Boeing 777-200ERs airplane, seating 50 customers in BusinessFirst with flat-bed seats and 226 customers in economy class.

The carrier plans to operate the route on a daily basis during peak summer travel season, with five- and four-times-weekly service during certain periods in the first year of operation.
Cairo, the largest city in Africa and the Middle East, will be the 72nd international destination that Continental Airlines serves from its New York hub at Newark Liberty International Airport and the 30th city in Continental’s transatlantic route network. Continental says it serves more nonstop destinations with more flights from the New York area than any other airline.
The capital of Egypt is the third new international destination Continental has announced since May.

Kenya Airways KQ Flights Nairobi To Juba
Kenya Airways will finally launch daily flights from Nairobi to Juba from 10th June this year!The airline had left this profitable market from Kenya and the Southern Sudan to other airlines, which were happily flying between the two destinations, KQ Partners with Chartis Kenya to Launch Travel Insurance.
KQ and CFC Stanbic Bank launch the KQ Msafiri Gold Credit Card that ones customers free air miles on usage.
The Juba route will be Kenya Airways' 48th route and will be serviced by an Embraer E170 and the schedules will be as follows:
KQ350 NBO0800 – 0940JUB E70 D
KQ351 JUB1030 – 1210NBO E70 D
Last year, South Sudan unveiled plans to spend heavily on expansion and modernisation to lure major airlines to Juba Airport. The government committed $30 million for the project. The three phase project will be completed by 2012 and will have the airport meet international standards. It is part of the programme by the South Sudan government to build infrastructure stalled by 20 years of civil war.
Several African and Middle Eastern carriers have shown an interest in flying to Juba in the near future.
Interest by international commercial airlines has grown tremendously as South Sudan consolidates the gains of peace and embarks on the long and difficult road of building the new nation. Juba is also becoming a commercial hub as businessmen from East Africa rush in the post conflict boom to supply goods and services, including major Kenyan businesses!
The move remedies the edge the absence of the Kenyan Carrier gave to regional competitors.The route is also serviced by Kenya's JetLink Express
