Moi Air Base (HKRE) in Nairobi, Kenya, is primarily a military airport operated by the Kenya Air Force, and not a civilian airport for commercial passenger traffic. While it historically served as Nairobi's main international civilian airport until 1958, this function ceased with the opening of Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA). Therefore, there are no recent traveler reviews or experiences available for Moi Air Base (HKRE) as it does not cater to commercial passengers. Civilian aircraft are generally only permitted in emergency situations.
Moi Air Base (HKRE) serves as a critical military installation and is also home to the East African School of Aviation. Due to its military status, it is not depicted on official maps of Nairobi. Recent concerns have also been raised regarding illegal encroachment around the base, which threatens its safety and operational efficiency. As it is not a commercial airport, information regarding terminal facilities, amenities, security, customs, transportation, or parking for civilian travelers is not publicly available.
