Throughout 2024, Uganda Airlines has been actively expanding its African and international route network. The Entebbe-based, state-owned airline, which resumed operations in 2019, has launched new routes to Harare, Abuja, and Lusaka, with plans for further intercontinental destinations.
In addition to its current services to Dubai and Mumbai, the airline is exploring new routes to Cape Town, Accra, Riyadh, Jeddah, and the United Kingdom, according to Uganda Airlines’ Chief Commercial Officer, Adedayo Olawuyi.
In an exclusive interview with AeroTime during AviaDev Africa 2024, Olawuyi highlighted that the airline is moving closer to profitability, having achieved 83% of its target revenue in December 2023. He added that the planned addition of four B787 Dreamliners and four A320neos, alongside the current fleet of four CRJ900LRs and two Airbus A330-800neos, will further support this expansion.
He emphasized that a strong intra-African network is essential for feeding international routes. Currently, Uganda Airlines operates flights to 16 destinations across 13 countries.
