Speaking at the 56th Annual General Assembly (AGA) of the Association in Cairo, Egypt, the chairman of EgyptAir Holding Company and AFRAA President for 2024, Eng. Yehia Zakaria, praised the sector’s resilience amid global challenges.

“These challenges have tested our resilience but also offered opportunities to innovate, collaborate, and grow,” Zakaria said. Highlighting Egypt’s strategic investments in aviation infrastructure, he noted a 31 per cent increase in passenger traffic at Cairo International Airport in 2023, underscoring the region’s growing demand for air travel.

Zakaria emphasised the importance of partnerships and sustainability for the industry. “Strengthening our partnerships is essential. By working together, sharing resources, and aligning our strategies, we can enhance efficiency, reduce costs, and expand networks. Moreover, we must prioritize sustainability to address climate change and ensure the viability of air travel for future generations,” he stated.

AFRAA secretary general, Abdérahmane Berthé, reflected on the industry’s impressive recovery post-pandemic, with many African airlines surpassing pre-pandemic performance levels. He highlighted AFRAA’s achievements across key pillars, including enhancing connectivity, fostering sustainability, improving infrastructure, and strengthening collaboration.,
