More connectivity means more choices for travellers. With daily direct flights between #Entebbe and #Kigali starting November 18, getting between these two regional hubs becomes even more convenient. Beyond passenger travel, stronger air links can support business, tourism, investment and the movement of people between Rwanda🇷🇼 and Uganda🇺🇬. It is another positive step towards making regional travel and collaboration easier. Welcome aboard, @UG_Airlines. Kigali is ready! #UgairlinesXKigali #KigaliHereWeCome #KigaliWeAreHere

“Uganda🇺🇬 and🇷🇼 Rwanda share more than geographical proximity. We share deep family ties, common interests, vast business opportunities and a collective vision for prosperity.” – Michael Bulwaka, Counsellor at the Uganda High Commission in Rwanda. Mr Bulwaka welcomed the introduction of daily Entebbe–Kigali flights from 18 November 2026, highlighting their potential to strengthen the longstanding ties between the two countries. Beyond providing greater travel convenience, improved air connectivity offers opportunities to deepen trade and investment, boost tourism, facilitate education and cultural exchange, and bring families and communities closer together. As Rwanda and Uganda continue to strengthen bilateral relations and regional cooperation, these connections can contribute to broader economic opportunities and integration across the East African Community. The new route is more than an air link; it is another bridge connecting people, businesses and shared ambitions across the region. #UgairlinesXKigali #KigaliHereWeCome #RegionalIntegration #EastAfricanCommunity
