Mombasa was harder to get to, as well.

Not true. Mombasa is the second largest city and the major port of Kenya. Why are you posting false information?

Mombasa was a regional only airport in 1961. So to get there by air (the fastest method) meant a plane to London, then fly into Nairobi, then take a regional flight to Mombasa. To me, that makes it harder to get to. If you maintain that a Honolulu to Mombasa ocean trip was easy, please give the travel time and expense.
