Travellers to Kenya are warned that they could experience embarrassment and difficulty on entry to Kenya should their passports show that they have travelled to South

Africa prior to arrival in Kenya; that they intend to travel to South Africa after departure from Kenya; or that they were born in South Africa. A special fare of ?NZ375 for up to eight journeys on British Airways domestic services in Britain, has been introduced by the airline. It is available only to New Zealanders who travel to Britain either with British Airways or Air New Zealand. Tickets must be bought in New Zealand at the same time as the international ticket to the United Kingdom.
