RwandAir is looking towards investing in the expansion of the airline with plans to double its fleet count which currently stands at 14 aircraft including three A330 widebodies (two A330-200 and one A330-300), six B737 passenger narrowbodies (one B737-700 and five B737-800s), one B737-800(SF) freighter, and a regional fleet comprising two CRJ900 jets and two DHC-8-Q400 turboprops.

CEO Yvonne Makolo said; “We are committed to becoming a major African hub, providing connections across our continent. While our growth will be organic, we expect to double our fleet over the next five years as we offer more convenient connections to our wide range of short- and long-haul services”.
