The unfavourable slots that RwandAir operates on its Kigali-Gatwick route are affecting its performance, as passenger numbers post a reduction this year, compared with the same period last year, according to international air passenger data.
In January, the national carrier recorded 1,332 passengers, a 48 per cent reduction compared with the 2,584 recorded in the same period in 2018.
The airline plans to add two A330 neo planes and an Airbus A321LR to its fleet, to deploy on its new African and international routes.
