Muva nje i-Kenya ne-United States basayine isivumelwano esisha sezindiza ezivulekile esisesibhakabhakeni samazwe amabili, esibhekelela ukundiza phakathi kwala mazwe womabili ngenkampani eqokiwe. Njengamanje, lena kuzoba yi-Delta ne-Kenya Airways, uma sebethole okwengeziwe ngendiza yabo eyalelwe i-Boeing ukuthi isebenze lo mzila.
