KQ Pilot Succumbs To Covid-19 In London

Kenya Airways captain Salah Salim Jeizan has succumbed to Covid-19 disease while receiving treatment at a hospital in London, United Kingdom.

The 53-year-old captain flew to London a few weeks ago while on duty. However, he reportedly fell sick after arriving in London and following the illness, Captain Jeizan was hospitalized, until his demise yesterday.

Evelyne Munyoki, the KQ Chief Human Resources Officer, revealed Captain Jeizan’s demise to staff in a memo released on November 2.

“It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of our colleague Captain Salah Salim Jeizan which occurred on December 2, 2020 at a London hospital where he was receiving treatment

“Captain Jeizan joined Kenya Airways on November 21, 2001. He rose through the ranks flying various fleets and until his last position, as a Senior Captain on the B787 fleet,” the memo read in part.

His colleagues also eulogized him as meticulously neat person, easy to work with, a gentleman and a father figure.
