The changes were announced on Monday, December 2, 2024, by the Rwanda Airports Company (RAC) and aim to enhance flight safety.<\/p>\n

In addition to the safety measures, the new landing procedures offer passengers a rare opportunity to enjoy scenic aerial views of Rwanda’s capital, including picturesque views of Kigali\u2019s skyline and iconic landmarks from above.<\/p>\n

“We hope you’ll enjoy the view!” Rwanda Airports said in a post on X.<\/p>\n

Kigali International Airport, the home base for RwandaAir, is located in Kanombe, a suburb of the Rwandan capital. <\/p>\n

Situated about 10 kilometers east of the city centre, the airport serves as the primary hub for Rwanda’s national carrier, facilitating both domestic and international flights. <\/p>\n

As the central point for RwandaAir’s operations, it plays a key role in connecting the country to the rest of the world.<\/p>\n
