The acquisition deal between Qatar Airways and Rwanda’s national carrier RwandAir is still on, with those aware of the latest plans saying internal re-organisation is going on at the national airline to accommodate Qatar Airways to reflect the new partnership in operations by end of this year.

The source says RwandAir is currently working on recommendations made by Qatar, such as having in place qualified and licensed staff, and letting go of those who are not.
