During the first day of the CANSO Africa Conference 2026 in Nairobi, which runs from October 13 to 15, CANSO called on African countries to invest in modern air traffic management systems.
CANSO Senior Vice President for Global Operations Andrea Sack said the infrastructure should be treated as a strategic investment and warned that deploying new technology without preparing supporting systems, personnel and procedures could limit its benefits, while the conference also examines how states can implement the Mombasa Air Traffic Flow Management Roadmap; an unnamed aviation industry representative projected Africa’s aviation sector to grow 4.1% annually, compared with about 3% in Europe.
