About Fly SAX

Fly SAX (IATA: B5), also known as East African Safari Air Express, was a Kenyan regional airline headquartered in Nairobi. Operating primarily from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and Wilson Airport, it specialized in scheduled domestic flights and safari charters across East Africa. The airline traces its roots to East African Safari Air (founded 1989) and rebranded to Fly SAX around 2012 before ceasing operations in March 2019. It offered a mix of jet and turboprop services suited to short-haul routes and remote airstrips popular with tourists. Distinctive for its focus on wildlife tourism and private charters, Fly SAX played a niche role in connecting Kenya's safari destinations before suspension by regulators and eventual closure.
