^^ According to Mr Ndekana the market share of the national carrier increased from merely 2.5 per cent in 2016 to 42.6 per cent at the end of last year with only two aircraft in operation.

an airline adds two narrow bodied planes to the market and it gains to 42% marketshare in the local industry! hehe no wonder fastjet are yet to make any profits .. Tanzania has no aviation market

Tanzania should focus on increasing their purchasing power.
Ni kama basi mbili ziongezwe kwa route moja Nairobi na automatically they have 42%.

Correction: JKIA is approaching 8 million passengers.
Hio 4 million passengers ata airport zote zenu za Tanzania hazijakaribia kwa pamoja.
And no one has forced international airlines to land in Nairobi instead of other airports. In fact, KAA actively encourages new airlines to start other routes, not to mention modernizing all these airports.

Lakini, in a capitalist world, airlines go where there is demand.
It's the same way mtajenga materminal mpya huko Nyerere lakini since Tanzania is still and LDC, demand will continue to be low.

Unaumwa wewe!

Air Tanzania has 4 aircraft right now each with over 70 PAX n compete with fastjet n Precisionair. We once talked of number of PAX per year ur other airports transport aside JKIA n MOI! It was a shame it turns out even at JKIA is a deliberate move by KAA to force international airlines to land there just to make the 4 mln PAX. Let them go direct to Mombasa n see through numbers at JKIA like what JNIA does by allowing international flights to KIA n AAKIA n soon to Mwanza, Mbeya n Dodoma.

you say ATCL has four planes now...ok ... But at the time they gained 42% market share at the end of last year they were only operating two planes!!! like it says on the article ....
" According to Mr Ndekana the market share of the national carrier increased from merely 2.5 per cent in 2016 to 42.6 per cent at the end of last year with only two aircraft in operation."



which begs the question... does Tz even have a local aviation market if an airline with two new aircrafts can gain almost 50% marketshare in just 1 year of operation...

Halafu hii strategy yao ya kununua ndege na kupanga route za mbali mbali kama SA, India.... yani hata bado marubani wao ndo wanatrain sahii na tayari wanataka waruke masafa marefu.... ATCL ingefanya kama vile Jambojet au hata makampuni mengi hufanya... wangechukua kama miaka mitano hivi wa concentrate na domestic routes ndani ya Tz, yani consolidate your base first uhakikishe uko na strong foundation na hakuna ndege inaweza kukushinda na wewe hapo nyumbani.... lakini jamaa wananunua ndege mbili na ya tatu anataka kwenda India kupeleka wagonjwa! Alafu kwa upande mwengine rais anasema wanajenga na kuboresha hospitali kama muhimbili na jk heart institute na cancer center ili kupunguza idadi ya watz wanaosafiri nje kutafuta matibabu spesheli... hapo kwa hivyo vitu viwili mmoja akifanyikiwa mwengine anafeli...
