The Kigali-based airline flies to Bangui the capital of Central African Republic, twice a week which commenced on February 03, with flights operating on Wednesdays and Sundays.

Tagged to the existing route to Douala in Cameroon, the flight is operated by one of the airline's existing Boeing 737 aircraft, offering customers a choice of seats in two cabins, Business Class and Economy Class.

Yvonne Manzi Makolo, CEO, RwandAir, said, “The launch of our new twice-weekly service to Bangui will open up a new lucrative market for RwandAir and help stimulate trade in the region and beyond Africa.”
