The airline is connecting Paris and Kigali with 3 Airbus A330 flights a week, its first direct service to France and RwandAir’s 25th destination.
WFS will provide full cargo handling services, supporting freight forwarding customers and its GSA partner in France, Network Airline Services.
The flights depart Paris on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.
Yvonne Makolo, CEO of RwandAir, says, “We are excited and proud to celebrate the start of RwandAir’s new three-times-a-week service to Paris from Kigali. We know this fantastic new route to the French capital will prove very popular with our customers. We look forward to growing our presence in the French market as we continue to expand our international route network and connect Africa with Europe and more overseas destinations.”
Laurent Bernard, VP Cargo France at WFS, adds, “RwandAir is another prestigious airline client for WFS in France and we are proud to have been chosen to support its ambitious growth strategy, connecting Paris with the heart of Africa. RwandAir is recognised for its on-time performance, customer service, and safety and these reflect WFS’ own core values. We look forward to a long and successful partnership.”
