Monarch Airlines is to profit from Kenya specialist, African Safari Club withdrawing Gatwick service via its in-house airline African Safari Airways from November. African Safari Club will instead employ the weekly Monarch service from the UK to Mombasa which will allow African Safari Airways to "better serve its European gateways".
African Safari Club director of sales, marketing and business development Daniel Sykes said: "The decision to move our UK - Mombasa flying to Monarch has been a simple one. We have already established an excellent relationship with the airline via our Nile River Cruise programme, which is also set for expansion in November to include operations from both Manchester and Gatwick."
The Kenya holidays specialist will make use of additional seats from First Choice, TUI and Kenya Airways on other dates because of high demand for their Indian Ocean Cruise holidays programme on MS Royal Star.
