Ser ut som en effekt her er at Qatar setter opp en liten cargo-hub i Kigali

Re: Qatar kjøper halve Rwandair

Det vil være en stærk brik at få ind i OneWorld. Star Alliance og SkyTeam sidder allerede med henholdsvis Ethiopean, og Kenya Airways i det østlige central afrika, hvor Star Alliance også har South African i det sydlige. Der er ikke rigtig nogle spiller i det helt centrale afrika under en af de store alliancer endnu.

I nordafrika, har vi henholdsvis Egyptair i Star Alliance og RAM der for nyligt er kommet med i netop oneworld.
