      This is Bett,
      I am glad that you were also impressed by that song.
      I wrote a few lyrics elsewhere in this video.
      i don't know the title but it is probably called 'Asante mungu wangu'.
      Don't quote me on that though.
      It goes something like this:
      Niwewe, mungu wangu,
      Niwewe, mungu wangu...,
      Asante, mungu wangu,
      Asante, mungu wangu Baba yangu, nashukuru kwa kuniweka Kenya.
      I just don't know the title. just google the lyrics. If you do , please let me know.

    Just to clarify, the announcer was not focused on what flag the various airlines fly but if direct flights were possible from various African countries. So he is correct. Delta flies nonstop between Joburg and the US as well as Accra and US. Arik flies Lagos to JFK. The other airlines and routes mentioned below are also generally correct. This is such a big day for Kenya and we can’t wait for other cities in the US to become directly accessible to Kenya. That will be a very big deal!

    Singapore and Philippine airlines are flying A350-900ULR on this flight the newest plane in the aviation industry, it has all qualities of a dreamliner and others that a dreamliner don't have. Its a wide body with only 161 pass no economy class but premium economy class comfort first.Kq with B787-800 which is smaller in size but carries 234 pass.Considering the distance of 14 hrs will this really work.I think comfort of the pass should have been the first priority and if kq don't like Airbus then they should go for B777X the next generation plane.
