Check with your airline - some may have house rules about what they will
allow in checked and/or carry-on luggage.
If you stop or change planes anywhere en route to Kenya, its not a bad
idea to check that country's rules too.
Example: three years ago I changed planes in Dubai en route from London
to India (on Emirates flights). Everybody had to go through security
there. In security a couple of spare 1000mAh batteries for my Panasonic
TZ-70 bridge camera removed from my hand luggage and not returned. These
were well under the allowed total capacity - I'd checked that previously.
When I complained after the trip the response was "local rules - tough".
