United Nations declares Unrestricted Use of RwandAir by its Staff

RwandAir RwandAir

RwandAir, the national carrier of the Republic of Rwanda is one of the fastest growing airlines in Africa.

It is committed to operating at international safety standards and its safety records are at the highest levels in the industry.

It’s with this same spirit that RwandAir pursued the IOSA certification and successfully passed the stringent IATA Operational Safety Audit in 2014. Consequently, RwandAir became a fully certified IATA member.

“We strive to maintain the highest safety standards by investing in people and the right infrastructure,” said Mr. Jean Paul Nyirubutama, RwandAir Deputy Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operations Officer.

Recently this year the United Nations have commended RwandAir’s safety record and lifted its ban for official staff travel.

“I am pleased to note that after our strong advocacy underpinned by RwandAir’s excellent safety record, the UN declared its unrestricted use by its staff”; said Lamin Manneh, the UNDP Resident Representative and UN Resident Coordinator in Rwanda.
