Travel between East, West and Central Africa is set to become more convenient following ASKY Airlines’ announcement that it will increase its flight frequency between Lomé, Togo, and Nairobi, Kenya, to four weekly services beginning 22 July 2026.

The additional flights mark another milestone in the carrier’s ongoing expansion strategy, aimed at strengthening intra-African connectivity while reinforcing its position as one of the continent’s leading regional airlines.

Under the new schedule, ASKY will operate flights from Lomé (LFW) to Nairobi (NBO) every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday, departing Lomé at 12:40 p.m. and arriving in Nairobi at 9:25 p.m. Return services from Nairobi to Lomé will operate every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, departing Nairobi at 9:05 a.m. and arriving in Lomé at 11:40 a.m.

The increased frequency offers greater flexibility for travellers connecting between East Africa and ASKY’s extensive network across West and Central Africa. Business travellers, tourists and passengers visiting friends and relatives will benefit from additional travel options and improved scheduling.

The move forms part of ASKY’s broader vision of becoming “an international airline with a touch of Africa,” connecting African countries more efficiently while linking the continent to the rest of the world through quality service.

Beyond passenger convenience, the expansion reflects the airline’s commitment to supporting economic growth across Africa. By increasing air connectivity, ASKY aims to facilitate trade, investment and business travel while contributing to the growth of tourism within Africa and between Africa and international markets.

For Kenya’s travel industry, the additional Nairobi frequency enhances access to key commercial centres in West and Central Africa through Lomé, ASKY’s strategic hub. The expanded schedule also provides travel agents and tour operators with greater flexibility when planning itineraries for clients travelling across multiple African destinations.

ASKY, widely recognised as The Pan African Airline, has built one of the largest route networks in West and Central Africa and continues to expand its footprint across the continent. The airline’s growing presence in Nairobi underscores the increasing importance of Kenya as a gateway for regional and continental travel.

The four-times-weekly Nairobi service is expected to further strengthen commercial, tourism and cultural ties between East Africa and the western regions of the continent, while giving travellers more choice and convenience when flying within Africa.
