Kenya Airways fights are free to access the Tanzanian airspace once against following talks between the Kenyan and Tanzanian authorities.
Coming just a day after Tanzania Civil Aviation Authority (TCAA) reciprocated restricted access to the country, Transport CS James Macharia announced that the standoff had since been resolved.
"This morning I held extensive discussions with my counterpart in Tanzania because there was an issue with regards to fights from Tanzania into Kenya. Indeed, Engineer Kamwere and I agreed that Kenya has never banned flights or travellers from Tanzania, what we have done is indicate certain health protocols for people arriving into the country.
