RwandAir launches Zanzibar and Mombasa route

RwandAir has launched a new Zanzibar and Mombasa route, departing from Kigali, beginning December 1, 2025.

The triangular route will operate four times a week, serviced by a Boeing 737.

The route marks RwandAir's return to Mombasa for the first time since 2019. Zanzibar will be a new destination for the airline.

"Returning to Mombasa and introducing Zanzibar is another step forward in our ambitious growth journey," said Yvonne Makolo, CEO of RwandAir.

“By expanding our East African network, we are strengthening Kigali’s position as a key hub, giving our customers more opportunities to explore the region, while also opening doors for trade, tourism and stronger ties across East Africa.”
