About Five Fourty Aviation

Founded in 2006, Five Forty Aviation, known as Fly540, is a budget airline with its headquarters in Nairobi, Kenya. Its hub can be found at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. It previously had two subsidiaries, Fly540 Angola and Fly540 Ghana, both of which ceased operations in May 2014. The airline currently has a fleet of 6 aircraft, comprised of three different types of Bombardier planes that fly to 10 destinations in Africa.

The majority of cities to which the airline operates flights are domestic locations within Kenya. The Kenyan destinations where it's possible to take a Fly540 flight include Malindi Airport, Manda Airport and Kisumu International Airport, Homa Bay Airport, Eldoret International Airport and Moi International Airport. The airline also services two locations outside of Kenya, one of which is Juba International Airport in South Sudan and the other is Abeid Amani Karume International Airport in Zanzibar, Tanzania.
