Its somewhat incredible to contemplate that in several decades ago, not one (Pan Am) but two (TWA) U.S. carriers departed New York for East Africa. It would take some research to determine just how long this route lasted, but it seems to have routed via Rome, Athens and Cairo variously, stopping next at Entebbe and then on to Nairobi and terminating at Dar Es Salaam.
