Uganda Airlines will hit the skies again this December: an artistic impression has leaked on social media

Civil Aviation Authority Managing Director, Dr. David Mpanga Kakuba announced that Uganda Airlines will hit the skies again this December, website Matooke Republic wrote.

Artistic impressions of what the new Uganda Airlines planes will look like have leaked on social media.

“Initially it was scheduled for August but this was pushed to December.  We are determined to see it begin flying by December,” Dr. Mpanga said while addressing journalists on the expansion of Entebbe Airport that is on-going.

Uganda Airlines was started in 1977 by President Idi Amin and it was liquidated in 2001 over a $6m (about Shs21billion) debt.

Last month, cabinet approved the airline’s revival.

The revival is estimated to cost $400m (about Shs1.4 trillion).
