Fly-SAX Airlines

Based in Kenya, Fly-SAX has built and is continuously building a reputation as one of East Africa’s leading charter airliners. If you want to experience a safari or beach holiday, Fly-SAX is able to connect you in and around locations such as “Comoros” - a beach haven consisting of 4 beautiful islands and home to the Ylang Ylang perfume and vanilla productions; “Amboseli” – a safari experience taking you right into the heart of the Amboseli National Park situated on the Tanzanian border boasting a splendid view of Africa’s highest mountain, Kilimanjaro capped with a snow-white cape top.

At this point we should mention that Fly-SAX has got nothing to do with its South African namesake, SA Express Airlines, who are also sometimes referred to as "SAX" for short. Click here to navigate to the Fly-SAX website.
