ABEID AMAN KARUME INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

There are tremendous changes since its construction 1995, it was formally named Kisauni airport and  later Zanzibar international airport. Recently  in honour of the first president of Zanzibar it was changed to Abeid Aman Karume International Airport in 2010.

 To increase its capacity here was construction of the new terminal at the airport, which began in February 2011. But it was halted in 2012 as some aspects did not comply well with ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) standards.

Below is a new design of the airport by the Aéroports de Paris Ingénierie (ADPI), as we publish the work in great progress and expectation are such that, once completed this 25,000sq metre terminal in Zanzibar, will be able to handle 3 million passengers, what a progress to Zanzibar!!
