Kuruka.com to excite Africa’s online travel industry

Press release


An exciting new travel start up Kuruka.com which has been added to the online travel industry in sub-Saharan Africa seeks to introduce great excitement into the online travel industry.

The online site is already causing great ripples on the online travel front of the continent and revolutionising the way of doing things in the industry.

Kuruka.com was born two (2) years ago by a group of young African businessmen who were tired of the fluctuations of airline travel on the continent, with the frustrations travellers have to go through.
They had had enough of the long delays and absurd routes which made a trip within the region cost several times as much as a trip to Europe or the Americas.
“Kuruka.com was created as an African solution to African problems: Our ambition is to compete, no holds barred with the major service providers and to achieve results that are second to none,” says Ghanaian founder, Amartey Nunoo-Amarteifio.

The vision of the service provider is summed up in the quest to make Kuruka.com the standard of excellence for continental African travel in the near future.

According to Mr. Nuno-Amarteifio, the company which exists online is poised to produce ways of democratising the travel industry by making its products accessible to the widest market.

“This ambition is being achieved in the revolutionary payment plans and network of routes we have introduced,” he added.

Kuruka.com operates on a purpose built website that is easy to access and simple to use. The company prides itself in the fiercely competitive prices and services it offers on its site which can be accessed by any local or international valid credit and debit card.

A special layaway plan is available for the general public. This plan permits the traveller to purchase a ticket and lock down the price with a modest down payment. The full cost of the ticket can be paid in instalments, while the client is protected against any unexpected fluctuations in the cost of the ticket, to assure an appreciable saving to the client.
Kuruka.com also provides a plan for corporate clients and institutions. This is designed to give business travellers greater control over their travel expenses whilst drastically reducing the cost of the transaction.
The plan provides the corporation with an account number and the privilege of purchasing tickets on the account to a predetermined limit. This credit can be paid off at a later date which gives the corporation great flexibility in the use of the traditionally enormous travel expenditure. END.
