Rwanda’s National Carrier RwandAir will soon launch a new route to a number of destinations, including Israel.
According to Calcalist, “Israel’s transportation minister Yisrael Katz and Rwandan Ambassador Joseph Rotabana signed an aviation agreement Monday between the two countries. According to the agreement, each country will be able to operate up to seven flights per week between Ben-Gurion Airport and Kigali International Airport.”
