Of course we acquired the 40 airplanes with our own cash. You think Magufuli gave us the cash?there is one old Q400 C undermaintenance. Then 2 planes 1 Dreamliner n Q400 r to be procured.

Ya rightOf course we acquired the 40 airplanes with our own cash. You think Magufuli gave us the cash?
Stop talking about the future. At the moment you have only 6 planes - Less than even Jambojet.
So when ATCL gets a loan from the government - Tumenunua wenyewe na pesa zetu.Ya right

Kenya Airways gets $240 mln in loans from government, Afreximbank | Reuters
That $2.5bln is more than KQ assets!
Considering the fact KQ is minting loss for 10th consecutive year! U have no plane to brag off!
The loan from Afrieximbank was only $200M. We bought 8 dreamliners, 4 B737-700, 8 B737-800, 3 B777-300ER (which are bigger than Dreamliners btw), 15 Embraer 190ER and 2 737-300. A single dreamliner alone costs $325M. This means the money we borrowed from Afriexim Bank can't even buy a single dreamliner yet we have 8 of them plus 3 777s. So where do you get the stupidity that our planes are on loan from? Stop being stupid Giza.

Kenya Airways receives first Dreamliner in transaction arranged by Afreximbank
Kenya Airways receives first Dreamliner in transaction arranged by Afreximbank
Cairo, 31 March 2014 – Kenya Airways today took delivery of its first Boeing 787-800 “Dreamliner” next generation aircraft in Seattle, United States, with the start of the execution of the second phase of a $1.9 billion aircraft purchase transaction arranged by the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank).
The phase involves the delivery of 10 Boeing aircraft, comprising nine 787-800 “Dreamliners” and one 777-300ER jet, to Kenya Airways as part of the 20-aircraft purchase transaction for which Afreximbank is the mandated lead arranger.
During the first phase, which ended in November 2013, Afreximbank delivered 10 Embraer-190 aircraft to the airline as part of a delivery schedule that began in August 2012.
The Boeing delivery financing, for which Afreximbank is the global coordinator, comprises a senior US-Exim guaranteed tranche and a commercial tranche.
Afreximbank is also acting as the arranger and underwriter of the commercial tranche, while Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. are the arrangers for the senior US-Exim guaranteed tranche.
“Afreximbank is committed to supporting transactions that further Africa’s integration,” said Jean-Louis Ekra, President of the Bank.
“Kenya Airways has established itself a leading airline on the continent. We are confident that this delivery will enable it to strengthen and expand its route network and, as such, bring about increased business connectivity across the continent.”
In May 2012, Kenya airways mandated Afreximbank to arrange the financing for the 10 Embraer-190 and 10 Boeing aircraft under a package consisting of pre-delivery payments facilities to fund advance payments to Boeing and Embraer, the aircraft manufacturers, and aircraft delivery facilities to fund the deliveries.
The transaction is part of the first phase of Kenya Airways’ fleet upgrade and a key component of its 10-year business plan for the period 2012 to 2021.

Kenya Airways receives first Dreamliner in transaction arranged by Afreximbank - African export-import bank
stop being a fool the bank arrangement organized by ur government was a result of failing to honor repayment!Your post doesn't in any way explain if Afriexim bank paid for those planes - remember KQ has 8 dreamliners and 3 777s which are bigger than Dreamliners. You posted here a source yourself that explained KQ borrowed just 200M dollars from Afrexim bank - 200M cannot even buy a single dreamline.
Afriexim Bank was just the CORDINATOR. Read your sources before posting them and more importantly UNDERSTAND them. A cordinator is not a FINANCER. Go to school
kwa mwendo alioanza JPM anaweza kama akiendelea ku-acquire 2 au 3 kila budget!
Which repayment? You say KQ got a loan to buy the dreamliners, now you are talking of repaying before the dreamliners were even bought. Why are you so confused?stop being a fooll the bank arrangement organized by ur government was a result of failing to honor repayment!

Hizo rangi na huyo Twiga zinavutia sana.. yani hizo ndege ni bango la kuvutia watalii. Halafu ilivyo itwa the wings of Kilimanjaro ndiyo tumeua kabisa. Siyo kupaka marangi mekundu . Dunia nzima sijaona ndege ambazo ziko branded vizuri kama za ATCL, ni classic.
