ISTANBUL: Turkish Cargo has
recently added Kigali, the capital of
Rwanda, and Oman's capital, Muscat,

With substantial import and export
activities, Kigali stands out in the
African region for business potentials.
The city enjoys a unique position as
the exports point for cargoes bound
for Johannesburg in South Africa.

combine flights to Kigali with the
Entebbe line in Uganda to launch a
substantial exports-imports line
across Africa. The state-owned freight
carrier is using the A330-200F

business route for the import-driven
markets of the Middle East. The route,

resulting to a more effective cargo
flight line. Turkish Cargo is also using
A330-200F freighter for the route.
