RwandAir launched in December 2002 (rebranded from Rwandair Express in 2009) and is Rwanda’s wholly government-owned national carrier, hubbed at Kigali International Airport.

For Tanzania, RwandAir flies direct to Dar es Salaam, Kilimanjaro and Zanzibar — the Zanzibar route runs 4 times weekly — all connecting through Kigali.
