Emirates introduces flexible payment options, providing more choice for Kenyan travellers

Customers can choose from new payment methods for greater convenience

Nairobi, 02 August 2021 – Emirates Airline has introduced additional convenient and flexible payment options for Kenyan travellers, offering them a better real-time user experience on the airline’s website and app when planning their travel.

Emirates Airline customers can now purchase their flight tickets using local debit and credit cards, mobile money or through mobile banking and have their ticket issued within minutes. This provides even greater convenience for customers by enabling them to switch from cash to online bank transfers from 12 local banks or three mobile wallet providers.

Emirates Kenya Country Manager Mr. Christophe Leloup said that the payment options will provide travellers with an easy-to-use booking and payment platform.

“Emirates is continuously committed to customer convenience through enhanced payment options when it comes to online bookings. Many customers in Kenya prefer more flexibility and choice when it comes to making online payments to finalise their travel plans, and we have worked very hard to provide them a secure and frictionless experience through more local banking partners, mobile money providers and a host of other options to facilitate payments. No matter the currency, location, bank, or card, our customers will find a payment solution that suits them when booking,” said Mr. Leloup.

Emirates has been gradually and safely rebuilding its route network and advancing its strategy to optimise its presence in key markets to serve leisure and growing business travel demand. Currently, the airline serves 120 global destinations and operates daily flights from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport to Dubai and beyond.
