Uganda Airlines has announced that services to Abuja, Harare, and Lusaka will commence on September 12, 2024.
Abuja will launch on September 12, 2024, with flights operated every Sunday and Thursday by our flagship A330-800 aircraft. This service is an extension of our regular flights to Lagos, which operate every Sunday, Monday, and Thursday.
Flights to Lusaka and Harare will launch on September 25, 2024, and will operate four times a week: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Using our CRJ-900 aircraft, this service expands our coverage of Southern Africa.
“We are delighted to announce these additions to our network, which not only increase Uganda’s connectivity to the rest of Africa but bring more choice and convenience to our customers,” said Uganda Airlines Chief Executive Officer Ms. Jenifer Bamuturaki. “The new services also mark the second phase of our network development and attest to our mission to bring affordable air travel to Ugandans for business and leisure. They also lay the groundwork for the final phase, during which we shall expand our footprint to points in Europe and Asia,” Ms. Bamuturaki added.
The new services, combined with the existing services to Bujumbura, Dar es Salaam, Dubai, Johannesburg, Juba, Kilimanjaro, Kinshasa, Lagos, Mogadishu, Mombasa, Mumbai, Nairobi, and Zanzibar, expand coverage to 16 destinations. The launch of the new routes is a milestone in the continuous contribution to intra-African travel.
The creation of an air bridge to West Africa and Southern Africa will bring convenience to travelers across the continent with direct flights and seamless connectivity, enabling multiple opportunities in business, trade, tourism, and socio-cultural linkages.
Bookings are open, and intending travelers can book through their travel agents, ticketing offices, or online via the Uganda Airlines app and website.
