Tweet Picks:
@FlyRwandAir #RwandAir CEO Yvonne Manzi Makolo: “African airlines have to work together to make SAATM work. There is no single data that says opening up the skies will not be beneficial” #FlyTheDreamOfAfrica #Rwanda.
@qatarairways Although Africa makes up 16% of the world’s population, it only captures approx 3.1% of the world’s air travellers. #Africa’s current performance in aviation clearly does not reflect its great potential. #avaf19.
@qatarairways Of the approximately 320 international airports in #Africa, 10 airports in 7 countries account for 49% of total seat capacity Given these figures, I think it is time to reconsider how Africa’s aviation market is positioned in order to maximize its full potential. #avaf19.
@TomRisen Air Canada and Air New Zealand are pursuing a joint venture. Air Canada also expands its international network with new seasonal routes to Auckland, Sao Paulo and Quito.
@UrugwiroVillage President Kagame: Removing barriers on the movement of goods and people means there will be steadily increasing demand for commercial air services in the years ahead. #avaf19.
