Karibu from the CEO of Air Tanzania
Karibu
Inside you’ll find fascinating features on the people and places across our network of destinations.
That network is growing all the time. It now stands at 15 destinations, with ten inside Tanzania and five abroad. This year has already seen the start of flights to Harare, in Zimbabwe, and Lusaka, in Zambia, and we hope to add Mumbai, Johannesburg, Guangzhou, Bangkok and London very soon.
With state-of-the-art jets, a Dreamliner 787-8 and two Airbus A220-300s, and three Turboprop Bombardier Q400 in our fleet (with more planes to come) we are able look into destinations beyond Africa such as Europe and America.
These are exciting times for the national carrier and we are thrilled to be able to share them with our passengers. We want to be your airline of choice and one that always exceeds customer expectations.
We must give thanks to our Hon. President Dr. John Pombe Magufuli for giving Air Tanzania the opportunity to regain its place as a serious competitor in the air transport market. The revamping program began once he was sworn in, following his vision of reliable, safe and sustainable high-quality airline services globally.
We have a highly trained and motivated crew of pilots and flight attendants who will make sure these standards are maintained. Inside you’ll find a feature on our inspirational trio of women pilots and find out more about how Air Tanzania is creating opportunities for the young people of the country to follow their dreams with a career in the aviation industry.
I have no doubt your flight crew today will make sure you have an enjoyable and comfortable flight. Thank you for flying Air Tanzania and we hope to share the skies with you again soon.
