Tourism got a major boost on Saturday after a Polish plane – Lot Polish Charter – made its maiden landing in Mombasa with 252 tourists on board. Last week, 315 tourists jetted in aboard Tui charter. Kenya Tourism Board Coast regional manager Jonathan Mbiyu said the proposed charter model only works in eastern Europe and Nordic countries. Mbiyu estimated 8,000 tourists would have arrived in Mombasa by then. Kenya Tourism Federation chairman Mohamed Hersi said by April 2019, Mombasa will have received 4,500 visitors from Poland.
