Kenya Airways is being investigated by the Liberian government for increasing airfare between the country’s capital, Monrovia, and Accra in Ghana.
The country’s civil aviation authority has begun investigating the abrupt rise in the airfare in August following complaints by local travellers on the route.
According to the official website of the country’s ministry of transport, the investigation targeted airlines that have increased their fares but it singled-out Kenya Airways as among those under scrutiny.
The Liberian Civil Aviation Authority is leading the charge and has already asked the Kenyan airline to provide “the Ministry and the LCAA technical data and justification for the price increase for analysis and review by Government”.
