AOCs/ASLs/Operations.
Nationale Régionale Transport (NRT Gabon) officially regained its Air Operator Certificate (AOC) on March 28, 2025, from Gabon’s Agence Nationale de l’Aviation Civile (ANAC), following a rigorous recertification process. This milestone enables the airline to resume both domestic and international commercial air services. Gabon’s domestic scheduled flight market is currently dominated by Fly Gabon and Afrijet Business Service. NRT Gabon’s return is expected to enhance competition and boost connectivity across the country, providing passengers with more options for reliable air travel.
Astral Aviation Ltd has postponed plans to secure a European AOC, opting instead to strengthen its operations in Africa and Asia due to declining freight volumes from Europe and a strong euro. The Nairobi-based cargo carrier is now pursuing a three-hub strategy centered in Nairobi, Johannesburg, and Hong Kong. To support this growth, Astral will launch two new subsidiaries: SUID CARGO AIRLINE in Johannesburg by end of 2025, and another in West Africa, reinforcing its presence in key regional markets.
African Aviation: Projections and Statistics.
Airbus delivered 69 aircraft in March, bringing its Q1 total to 134 units.

On April 3, 2025, Ethiopian Cargo & Logistics Services launched a new freighter route linking Macau and Madrid, using its Boeing 777F aircraft. Macau becomes the latest addition to Ethiopian’s extensive Chinese cargo network, reinforcing its role as a leading air cargo operator between Asia and Europe.
TAAG-Linhas Aereas de Angola is planning a new direct route from Luanda to Houston by 2027, contingent on Angola attaining a Category 1 safety rating from the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). If approved, it will be the only nonstop link between the two oil capitals, enhancing trade and business travel.
Air Arabia Maroc is set to close its Tetouan base by end of April 2025, discontinuing routes to Paris, Brussels, Madrid, and Barcelona. The base, launched in April 2024, aimed to run 13 weekly flights to five cities, but failed to gain traction. Other airlines like Ryanair – Europe’s Favourite Airline and Royal Air Maroc continue to serve Tetouan.
Mozambique’s national airline LAM – MOZAMBIQUE AIRLINES will suspend direct flights to Cape Town starting April 8, citing efforts to optimize efficiency. The move follows recent suspensions of the Maputo–Lisbon route—where it reportedly lost $21 million—alongside routes to Harare and Lusaka, all deemed unsustainable.
On April 1, Nigeria’s Green Africa announced a temporary suspension of operations due to an aircraft leasing issue. The carrier apologized for the inconvenience and assured passengers it is actively working on a resolution to resume services promptly.
Airline Fleets and ACMI’s.

Aviation Infrastructure, Financing & Profitability.
The Alliance Fleuve Congo (AFC)/M23 has launched a demining operation at Goma International Airport, which has been closed since January 25, 2025, following the group’s capture of Goma. The initiative aims to restore both humanitarian and commercial air traffic to the region. Significant progress has been made, including clearing the tarmac and removing numerous explosive devices. However, the airport’s runway and control tower remain inoperable, and several aircraft left behind during the conflict are still occupying the site. A key development occurred on March 28, 2025, when AFC/M23 and leaders from the Southern African Development Community (SADC) signed an agreement to establish a joint team tasked with assessing and rehabilitating the airport. The agreement also includes provisions for a ceasefire and troop withdrawal—critical steps toward de-escalation and lasting peace.
On March 28, 2025, Gabon’s transitional president, Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema, initiated two major infrastructure projects: the construction of Andem International Airport and the development of “Libreville 2,” a modern eco-urban city.

Among these was the $3.4 million contract for aviation advisors in Kenya under the U.S. State Department.
Air Mauritius has converted a MUR 8.05 billion (approximately USD 176 million) shareholder loan from its parent company, Airport Holdings Ltd (AHL), into equity. This conversion is part of the airline’s financial restructuring efforts, aimed at strengthening its financial position and ensuring continued financial support. In October 2021, AHL acquired additional shares in Air Mauritius, leading to a mandatory offer to purchase all remaining voting shares at MUR 5.80 per share. These initiatives reflect a strategic effort to stabilize the airline’s finances and support its recovery and growth in the post-pandemic aviation market.
VISA/Passports.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced on Saturday that the United States is canceling all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and suspending the issuance of new ones. This action comes in response to South Sudan‘s transitional government failing to accept the return of its deported citizens. This is the first such measure targeting all passport holders from a specific country since U.S. President Donald Trump returned to the White House on January 20, 2025, after campaigning on an anti-immigration platform. South Sudanese nationals had been granted “Temporary Protected Status” (TPS) under the administration of Trump’s predecessor, Joe Biden, with the designation set to expire on May 3, 2025. According to the Department of Homeland Security, approximately 133 South Sudanese nationals in the United States were under the TPS program, with an additional 140 eligible to apply as of September 2023.

Lawsuits.
The first trial related to the 2019 Boeing 737 MAX 8 crash in Ethiopia, which tragically claimed the lives of 157 people, will begin this Monday, April 7, 2025, in a federal court in Chicago. A pre-trial hearing was held on Wednesday, April 2, before Judge Jorge Alonso. The trial, led by attorney Robert A. Clifford, will focus on determining damages for the families of two victims: Paolo Dieci, an Italian NGO leader, and Darcy Belanger, a Denver-based environmental activist. Between April 2019 and March 2021, relatives of 155 victims filed lawsuits against Boeing, accusing the company of wrongful death, negligence, and other charges. Most of these cases have been settled, often at the last minute before trial dates. As of late last month, 18 lawsuits against Boeing remain unresolved. US District Judge Jorge Alonso has consolidated the remaining lawsuits into groups of five or six plaintiffs, with the potential for trial cancellation if all cases are settled beforehand. The details of most settlements have been kept confidential.
In April 2025, Kenya’s aviation tribunal dismissed an appeal from four hot air balloon operators— Skyship, Eco Adventures Africa, Adventures Aloft, and Balloon Safaris Ltd.—against a license granted to Ishara Air Balloon Safaris for operations in the Maasai Mara. The appellants argued that Narok County had previously reduced daily balloon flights to protect the local ecosystem and that granting a new operator’s license conflicted with these efforts. However, the tribunal upheld the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority’s decision, noting that Ishara had met all regulatory requirements, including obtaining an environmental license from NEMA and proposing eco-friendly practices such as cleaner fuel and centralized launch sites.
In South Africa, the Special Investigating Unit (SIU), an independent corruption watchdog, has launched an investigation into South African Airways (SAA) regarding allegations of serious maladministration, corruption, and unlawful conduct. The investigation is part of a broader initiative to combat corruption within state-owned entities. It covers activities from January 1, 2014, to the present, with provisions to examine relevant matters outside this period. The SIU aims to identify systemic failures and recommend measures to prevent future losses. This investigation follows prior scrutiny of SAA’s operations. In March 2024, South Africa’s Parliament referred a failed deal involving SAA to the SIU for investigation, seeking to ensure accountability and transparency. The SIU is tasked with recovering financial losses caused by corruption and maladministration. The outcomes of this investigation could have far-reaching implications for SAA and other state-owned enterprises under review.

AfriSAF, a UK-based startup founded in January 2025 by aviation sustainability expert Kwame Bekoe, is poised to revolutionize Africa’s agricultural waste management. The company’s mission is to transform the continent’s abundant agricultural residue into sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), tackling both environmental challenges and economic opportunities. Each year, approximately 170 million tons of agricultural waste are discarded across Africa, often through open burning, which contributes significantly to greenhouse gas emissions. AfriSAF seeks to convert this waste into a valuable resource for the aviation sector, offering a dual solution to sustainability and resource utilization.
The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has announced plans to sanction airlines that fail to inform passengers about travel restrictions at their destinations. The authority raised concerns about airlines selling tickets to passengers, only to deport them halfway due to visa or travel restrictions. This practice, known as “transporting passengers partway,” is seen as a way for airlines to profit from tickets they would otherwise not sell. In a statement issued by the NCAA’s Director of Consumer Protection and Public Affairs, the agency emphasized that this situation causes significant distress to passengers and tarnishes the reputation of Nigeria’s aviation industry.
