RwandAir has been awarded Best Airline Staff Service in Africa at the 2026 World Airline Awards, presented by Skytrax, recognising its consistently high standards of customer service across its growing network. The award was presented at the 2026 World Airline Awards ceremony in London, where RwandAir was recognised alongside the world’s leading airlines. The award reflects RwandAir’s continued focus on service excellence, with its people at the heart of the customer experience. From cabin crew and airport teams to customer service and operational staff, RwandAir’s employees play a central role in delivering the warmth, hospitality and professionalism for which the airline is increasingly recognised.

RwandAir has been named Best Cabin Service in Africa at the 2026 APEX Awards, marking the first time the airline has received this recognition for its onboard customer experience. The award was presented during the APEX Future Travel Experience (FTE) EMEA event in Dublin and is based exclusively on independently verified passenger feedback from more than one million flights worldwide. The recognition is therefore a direct reflection of the experience delivered to customers onboard RwandAir flights.
