Nsinga said the Kigali International Airport  has been receiving an average of 3,000 passengers per day in the last five years, thanks to the excellent ground services it offers."RwandAir expects to grow passenger numbers to 1.2 million this year, but we plan to surpass that target by 2015. We want the airport to become one of the busiest hubs in sub-Saharan Africa.”Nsinga explained that the expansion of the airport and the construction of Bugesera Airport by 2015, the company will have grown to a fleet of about 12 aircraft with two Boeing 787 Dreamliner, with  plans to fly to Asia and Europe.
