The changes were announced on Monday, December 2, 2024, by the Rwanda Airports Company (RAC) and aim to enhance flight safety.
In addition to the safety measures, the new landing procedures offer passengers a rare opportunity to enjoy scenic aerial views of Rwanda's capital, including picturesque views of Kigali's skyline and iconic landmarks from above.
"We hope you'll enjoy the view!" Rwanda Airports said in a post on X.
Kigali International Airport, the home base for RwandaAir, is located in Kanombe, a suburb of the Rwandan capital.
Situated about 10 kilometers east of the city centre, the airport serves as the primary hub for Rwanda's national carrier, facilitating both domestic and international flights.
As the central point for RwandaAir's operations, it plays a key role in connecting the country to the rest of the world.
