Uganda Airlines to Introduce Routes to Three African Cities in September
The national airline, Uganda Airlines, declared here on Wednesday that it will begin service to the capital cities of Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Nigeria in September 2024.
The chief executive officer of Uganda Airlines, Jenifer Bamuturaki, stated that the additional flights will improve Uganda’s connectivity to the rest of Africa during the airline’s inauguration ceremony on Wednesday in Kampala, the country’s capital.
“The launch of the new routes is a milestone in our continuous contribution to intra-African travel. The creation of an air bridge to West Africa and Southern Africa will bring convenience to travelers across the continent with direct flights and seamless connectivity, enabling multiple opportunities in business, trade, tourism, and socio-cultural linkages,” Bamuturaki said.
The airline already flies to Kenya, Tanzania, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Somalia, South Sudan, South Africa, the United Arab Emirates, India, Burundi and Nigeria’s largest city of Lagos.
