WHAT IT IS

A calm wait between two long flights

Transit is its own kind of journey. You are not entering Kenya, so you do not clear immigration, but you still have to find the transit security channel, work out which gate your onward flight leaves from and judge how long the walk really takes. None of that is obvious the first time.

Your host meets you at the door of the inbound aircraft or at the transit desk with your name on a board. They walk you through transit security, check the onward gate on the departures board and take you there by the shortest route, leaving time for a bathroom stop and something to eat on the way.

If you have several hours to wait, we can arrange lounge access so you are not sitting on the floor by a gate. If your connection is tight, your host knows which security channel moves fastest at that hour and will tell you before you start walking. We track both flights, so a late inbound does not leave you stranded wondering what happens next.

Booked any time — 6 hours before landing is enough

QUESTIONS

Meet & Assist – Transit FAQs

Arrivals if the passenger is landing at JKIA or Wilson Airport and needs someone waiting inside the terminal. Departure if they are flying out and need help from the terminal entrance through to the gate. Transit if they are changing flights and staying inside the terminal between an inbound and an onward flight.

Meet & Assist puts a named host with your passengers from the moment they walk into the terminal: name board, luggage, escort through immigration and customs, and the handover to the driver. Fast Tracking adds an accredited agent who takes them through the immigration fast-track lane ahead of the queue. You can book either on its own, or both together.

No. Plenty of clients book Meet & Assist on its own — for a colleague arriving on business, or for family who already have a hotel shuttle arranged. We simply walk them out to the shuttle or to a reputable taxi instead of handing them to our driver.

Nothing changes and nothing extra is charged. Your host tracks the flight number rather than a fixed time, so they are there when the aircraft actually lands. If a delay turns into a cancellation, the booking moves to the new flight.

We send a WhatsApp photo of the host, with the name that will be on the board, before the flight lands. The host waits where arriving passengers come out of customs, so there is one clear meeting point.
