A week after RwandAir's latest acquisition arrived in Kigali, the
aircraft entered commercial service yesterday with a maiden flight
from Kigali to Bujumbura and back to Kigali. This follows the
completion of the integration procedures the airline had put into
place, as crews were trained on the new aircraft in emergency
evacuation as well as service elements, getting them used to the new
galley and layout of the plane.
A full schedule for the aircraft is going underway as of early today,
Tuesday, when the Bombardier Q 400 NextGen will begin to make regular
appearances in Kamembe, RwandAir's only domestic destination and
springboard to Nyungwe Forest National Park, but also fly to such
destinations like Entebbe, Bujumbura, and other regional airports
where the 67-seat, dual-class turboprop aircraft now provides the
right size for the respective routes.

Travelers and travel agents broadly welcomed the arrival of the new
aircraft as it now provides both business and economy class cabins
across the entire fleet of aircrafts now in use, thought crucial to
provide in particular business travelers with the same level of
service throughout the journey, irrespective of the aircraft type
used.

Meanwhile the airline has also confirmed that the commercial launch of
flights to Douala is on course for the end of March, when RwandAir
will add their 5th West African destination after Brazzaville,
Libreville, Lagos, and Accra with 5 flights a week.

-“The root cause of the Rwandan tragedy of 1994 is the long and past historical ethnic dominance of one minority ethnic group to the other majority ethnic group. Ignoring this reality is giving a black cheque for the Rwandan people’s future and deepening resentment, hostility and hatred between the two groups.”

-« Ce dont j’ai le plus peur, c’est des gens qui croient que, du jour au lendemain, on peut prendre une société, lui tordre le cou et en faire une autre ».

-“The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish.”

-“I have loved justice and hated iniquity: therefore I die in exile.

-“The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men.”
