Zanzibar is the fourth-largest airport in East Africa this winter, up from seventh year-on-year.

Addis Ababa remains top, followed by Nairobi. Dar Es Salaam is now third, up by one place, while the island nation of Mauritius – which was third – has fallen out of the top-10.

Zanzibar has seven new airlines this winter: AZUR Air; KLM; Nord Wind; Royal Flight; SkyUp; Uganda Airlines; and UTAir. Nord Wind, which last operated in winter 2018, is back.

KLM started Zanzibar in December 2020 with a twice-weekly service using 294-seat B787-9s. It operates triangularly: Amsterdam – Zanzibar – Dar – Amsterdam.

Yet it is Russia and Ukraine that is key for winter 2020, with Russians flocking to African islands.

The two nations now have almost 209,000 seats at Zanzibar, up from zero last winter – and 40% of the airport’s total. The previous winter high – in winter 2018 – was just 7,200.

Sheremetyevo - A.S. Pushkin international airport

Khimki, Moscow Oblast, Russia

The long-awaited flight to Zanzibar at the Sheremetyevo airport - Russia 24


Hundreds of RoyalFlight passengers who intended to fly to sunny Zanzibar last night spent long hours at Sheremetyevo airport for their trip of a lifetime to Zanzibar

Сотни пассажиров, которые намеревались вылететь минувшей ночью в Занзибар, провели в аэропорту Шереметьево долгие часы без информации, без еды и воды. Некоторым понадобилась медицинская помощь. Правовую оценку действиям перевозчика даст прокуратура

December 2020. We fly to Zanzibar for the first ever Azur Air (Anex Tour) Vnukovo-Zanzibar flight. ZF 8807. Boeing 777

Until the very last moment, we did not believe that it would be Zanzibar, the ocean here is the most amazing.

Since when the size of Airport or stadium uses number of people?, stop this Kenyan stupidity

You could use sq feet which is rather pedestrian, actually the correct way to determine the size of a stadium, airport or even a truck is to look at whats relevant, for what purpose was it built.

For example, You describe a stadium by the number of seats coz that is what is relevant not the size of the cocrete pillars. A truck by its payload coz thats whats relevant not the size of the cabin. A crane by its lifting capacity not speed. And Similarly an airport by the number of passengers it can handle not by sq feet
 
You very much correct, Airports and and Stadia we use the "Capacity they can handle not amount of people use or attend the tournaments yearly.

Kasarani stadium has the capacity of 60K but most of the time only half of seats are full, that doesn't make Kasarani stadium to be smaller than Kirumba stadium in Mwanza with Capacity of 30K just because Kirumba is full to its capacity all the time.

JNIA is bigger than JKIA in terms of Capacity and size, but JKIA is the busiest Airport in EAC, stop twisting the fact.

JNIA biggest and modern Airport
JKIA the busiest and old Airport

Dude, Airport sizes are measure by number of passengers. Wewe unadhani Airport hupimwa na vigezo gani? Kama mwenzio alivyokuelezea hapo juu, huwezi pima ubora au ukubwa wa crane kutumia speed yake bali payload. How relevant is Sq. ft to an airport? As far as the relevant items are concerned, MIA is bigger than Zanzibar.
