Kenya Airways said on Monday demand for seats on its flights had jumped ​due to the effects of war ‌in the Middle East, with most of the gains coming from Europe, the U.S. and Asia.

The U.S.-Israeli war ​on Iran has upset the global ​aviation industry, prompting some airlines to raise ⁠fares and change their schedules to reduce ​stops at airports in the Middle East, or ​to cancel flights altogether.

Kenya Airways said demand for seats on its flights, known as load factor, was now almost ​at 100% from around 70% in January.

"We ​were like this ... until February. Then it significantly increased. We ‌reached ⁠up to 90% total, 90, 99," George Kamal, acting CEO of Kenya Airways, told reporters.

"And so the gains we see are ​coming from ​Europe, from ⁠the U.S. and Asia. Those routes are contributing positively, very positively, ​to our network now," Kamal added, ​without ⁠giving any further details.

Kenya Airways has about 56 days of jet fuel supply and is making ⁠efforts ​to obtain more from India, ​its flight operations head, Paul Njoroge, said.
