RwandAir marks 10 years of Kigali-Lusaka flights, expanding from three weekly to daily service, boosting tourism, connectivity, and regional growth in Africa.
RwandAir is celebrating a major milestone — ten years of uninterrupted service between Kigali, Rwanda and Lusaka, Zambia. Since the inaugural flight on March 27, 2015, the route has transformed from a three-times-a-week connection into a daily lifeline that has redefined regional travel and economic exchange between the two African nations.
This growth is more than a win for air traffic — it reflects a deeper commitment to Africa’s development through increased connectivity. Over the past decade, the Kigali–Lusaka route has not only opened doors to tourists eager to explore both countries, but also sparked meaningful progress in areas such as student mobility, cultural exchange, and the expanding Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) sector.
The daily frequency now available marks a new chapter for the airline’s intra-African strategy. With consistent schedules and growing demand, this route has emerged as a vital contributor to regional integration. It connects people and businesses, fuels tourism, and plays a key role in strengthening continental ties — one flight at a time.
In recognition of this 10-year achievement, RwandAir is rolling out an exclusive limited-time promotion to thank its travelers. Customers booking tickets on select international routes — including destinations like Kigali, London, Brussels, Lagos, Nairobi, and Paris — can now enjoy a 25% discount. The offer is valid for bookings made before May 15, 2025, with travel permitted until June 15, 2025.
This celebration underscores RwandAir’s broader mission: to link Africa internally and to the rest of the world, all while delivering affordable, high-quality travel options to a diverse customer base.
As RwandAir marks a decade of Kigali–Lusaka operations, it looks ahead with a clear vision — to expand its footprint, strengthen air travel access across the continent, and foster new opportunities through aviation. The Lusaka route stands as a shining example of what’s possible when commitment to connectivity meets the power of regional cooperation. [https: Travel and Tour World]. (End)
