Kenya Airways Ltd., more commonly known as Kenya Airways, is the flag carrier airline of Kenya.[5] The company was founded in 1977, after the dissolution of East African Airways. Its head office is located in Embakasi, Nairobi,[6] with its hub at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.[7]

The airline was owned by the Government of Kenya until April 1995, and it was privatised in 1996, becoming the first African flag carrier to successfully do so.[8] Kenya Airways is currently a public-private partnership. The largest shareholder is the Government of Kenya (48.9%), with 38.1% being owned by KQ Lenders Company 2017 Ltd (in turn owned by a consortium of banks), followed by KLM, which has a 7.8% stake in the company. The rest of the shares are held by private owners; shares are traded on the Nairobi Stock Exchange, the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange, and the Uganda Securities Exchange.[8][9][10]

The airline became a member of SkyTeam in June 2010, and is also a member of the African Airlines Association since 1977.[11][12]
