Send us a textEin neuer, fragwürdiger Trend sorgt für Unmut bei Fluggesellschaften: Passagiere setzen sich absichtlich in die First Class, um kostenlos Getränke zu genießen, bevor sie zurück in die Economy geschickt werden. Dieser „Trick“, der auf Social Media kursiert, bringt Flugbegleiter*innen auf die Palme.Social-Media-Videos, die solche Aktionen verherrlichen, inspirieren andere, es auszuprobieren. Die Motivation? Die hohen Preise für Cocktails in der Economy umgehen und einen Moment „Luxus“ erleben.Der vermeintliche „Hack“ mag auf den ersten Blick clever erscheinen, aber die möglichen Folgen – von öffentlicher Blamage bis hin zu rechtlichen Konsequenzen – machen diese Aktion alles andere als lohnenswert.

The Maasai community in northern Tanzania has continued to protest against what they call forcible evictions from their ancestral lands at the Ngorongoro conservation area and a UNSECO heritage site. Why are they being relocated? Kenya's national carrier, Kenya Airways, has announced that it is out of the doldrums, and has posted its first net profit in more than a decade. What lessons have they learnt from the past, and is the recovery sustainable? And Uganda proposes a new law that will require teachers to attain a bachelor's degree to continue in the profession.Presenter: Charles Gitonga Producers: Bella Hassan and Karnie Sharp in London.

Netanyahu torpedoes Biden's truce deal, vows to continue war on Gaza https://www.trtworld.com/middle-east/netanyahu-torpedoes-bidens-truce-deal-vows-to-continue-war-on-gaza-18176539 The US-backed proposal to end Israel's war on Gaza is in doubt after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he would only be willing to agree to a "partial" ceasefire deal that would not end the war. In an interview, Netanyahu stated he is open to a limited deal to free some of the hostages. However, he insisted the war would continue after a pause. Netanyahu's comments sharply contrast with the deal outlined by US President Joe Biden last month. *) Blinken tells Israel's Gallant to ease tensions with Hezbollah https://www.trtworld.com/middle-east/live-blog-blinken-tells-israels-gallant-to-ease-tensions-with-hezbollah-18176540 US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has urged Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant to avoid escalation with Hezbollah amid Israel's ongoing war on Gaza. Blinken stressed protecting humanitarian workers in Gaza and seeking a diplomatic resolution to prevent further conflict. This comes as Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu threatened a military invasion of Lebanon. *) Israel turns Greek Cypriots into its logistics base — Turkish FM https://www.trtworld.com/middle-east/israel-turns-greek-cypriots-into-its-logistics-base-turkish-fm-18176532 Turkish Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan has raised alarms over escalating tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean, focusing on threats from Greek Cypriots. Fidan warned against using southern Cyprus as a base for operations against Gaza, stating it would not benefit the Greek Cypriot administration. He urged regional actors to recognise the seriousness of the situation and to prevent further militarisation in the region. *) Kenya troops leave Nairobi to start mission in gang-hit Haiti https://www.trtworld.com/content/article/kenya-troops-leave-nairobi-to-start-mission-in-gang-hit-haiti-18176551 A Kenyan force has left Nairobi to lead a multinational mission addressing gang violence in Haiti, according to Interior Minister Kithure Kindiki. About 400 police officers departed Nairobi on Monday night aboard Kenya Airways. The group comprises elite officers from the Rapid Deployment Unit, General Service Unit, Administration Police, and Kenya Police. And finally… *) NASA scraps planned spacewalk after astronaut suit malfunction A NASA spacewalk at the International Space Station (ISS) was abruptly ended when water began leaking from one of the astronauts' spacesuits inside the airlock. NASA called off the spacewalk on Monday after astronaut Tracy Dyson reported water squirting from her spacesuit's cooling system. The leak occurred as Dyson switched her suit to battery power before floating outside the station. Despite the incident, astronauts Mike Barratt and Tracy Dyson were reported safe and not in immediate danger, according to NASA. https://www.trtworld.com/science-and-tech/nasa-scraps-planned-spacewalk-after-astronaut-suit-malfunction-18176553

In this episode, we talk to Grace Vihenda, Senior Manager, Innovation and Sustainability at Kenya Airways, who shares the airline's efforts to promote sustainable aviation in Africa, a continent with abundant resources for sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production but limited infrastructure and investment.In 2023, Kenya Airways became the first African airline to use SAF for an intercontinental long-haul flight. The flight was conducted as a part of SkyTeam's Sustainable Flight Challenge, despite the challenges posed by the lack of a SAF policy framework in the country and the need to purchase the fuel from overseas at a significantly higher cost. The flight has been instrumental in helping chart the course for supportive policy action and the need to set up local SAF production. Vihenda discusses Kenya Airways' plans to scale up local production, with testing and certification planned for 2024, and eventual commercialisation for broader use.Vihenda also elaborates on Kenya Airways' innovative sustainability initiatives, such as partnering with a startup to produce cleaner diesel from waste plastic, implementing 100% recycling of food waste during in-flight meal preparation, and developing upcycled products from aircraft parts. She also emphasises the importance of collaboration and knowledge-sharing among airlines to advance sustainability goals.If you LOVED this episode you'll also love the conversation we had with SkyTeam Alliance's CEO Patrick Roux who outlines the alliance's role in enabling airlines' net zero journey.

Rais William Ruto amejitetea kuhusiana na hatua yake kutumia ndege ya kibinafsi kusafiri hadi nchini Marekani, akidai kuwa kufanya hivyo kulikuwa kwa gharama ya chini kuliko kutumia ndege za Shirika la Ndege la Kenya Airways. Kujitetea huku kuionesha serikali hii kuwa isiyojali kuhusu utunzaji wa Mali ya umma na pia maafisa wakuu wa serikali hawana Imani na huduma zinazotolewa katika mashirika ya serikali kama KQ. Inasikitisha mno!
