Mad_Mullah Posted July 8, 2013 That's because air is much more safe than driving and it takes less time.. Who the hell would drive from Mogadishu to Uganda. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Juxa Posted July 9, 2013 This is very welcome news. I hated flying through the Dubai route (neefta kugu ceshomi) and on top of them you will share the flight with smelly things such as fish and goats Turkish airlines have awful customer service records, they treat somalida like qashin, so i dont want to fly with them again. Now London to uganda waa meeqa lacag iyo saac? connectionka to xamar waa meeqa saac? iyo welibe transit timeka! bal intaa hala iga jawaabo adinkoo mahadsan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kenya, with its millions of yearly visitors, has only 49 International flights landing at the main airport. At the moment the only people who are visiting Mogadishu, for the most part, will be diaspora with local connections and thus the traffic will stabilise in the coming 2-3 yrs. I estimate there won't be more than 15-20 (max) international flights landing in that airport. At one day on January this year, there were 40 flights to Mogadishu, one day alone on that, believe it or not, yes, Kenya may seem attractive, but it is not only diaspora who fly to Mogadishu, huge traffic comes from the Middle East, and Somalis who own businesses in Kenya. Juxa, return flight to Mogadishu from London via Kampala is 800 Pound, transit at Entebbe varies with which airline you choose to fly from London, in all, not more than 3 hours(you need this as a rest for a non stop 8 hour flight), with that price, and only one transit, you will beat the Turkish at Istanbul transit and then Djibouti/Khartoum transit.

ElPunto Posted July 9, 2013 Anything that brings down the ridiculous costs to travel to Somalia is welcome. I remember the planes from Dubai charging 500 dollars to fly to SL/PL. Unbelievable and they were Somali owned. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But having said that, i dont think there's been any fatal accident in recent memory involving Somalis. The near mishaps is a disaster in waiting- Case in point, the president's plane.

nuune Posted July 9, 2013 ^^ They are not fit to fly Abti, the fact that no authority controls these planes is itself a disaster. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
