Philippine Airlines to Add Up to 20 Boeing 787-10s
Uganda Airlines has placed a firm order for eight Boeing aircraft.
The order comprises four Boeing 737-8 aircraft and four Boeing 787-9 aircraft. The airline will increase its capacity to meet growing demand for regional and international travel from East Africa.
Jennifer Bamuturaki, Chief Executive Officer of Uganda Airlines, said: “This agreement with Boeing represents a decisive step in Uganda Airlines’ growth journey and in our broader ambition to position Entebbe as a strategic aviation hub in the region. These aircraft will strengthen our ability to connect Uganda more efficiently with the region, the continent and international markets, while supporting the growth of trade, tourism, investment and cargo transportation.”
Uganda Airlines, Uganda’s national carrier, began operations in 2019. Based in Entebbe, Uganda, it serves 17 cities in 13 countries across Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Europe.
