Putting Uganda on the map Uganda operates a liberalised air transport regime which encourages free entry and exit of air operators . It is therefore in its interest to encourage foreign air operators to operate in its airspace extend a number of incentives to domestic and international operators .
Makuza said : “ Some of the incentives include a 100 percent discount on aeronautical charges for one flight out of every seven frequencies a week in / out of Entebbe International Airport , on a specific sector , for scheduled domestic operators .
“ In relation to investment in physical infrastructure , CAA also provides rebates on land lease rates and concession fees equivalent to 10 percent of the capital investment cost spread over 10 years to capital projects for aviation infrastructure undertaken in Uganda .”
It is clear that the CAA ( not to mention Entebbe Airport itself ) is set to play a significant role in the social and economic development of Uganda as tourism and trade continue to grow . By tacking the prospect of massive growth in demand head-on with its 20 year master plan , the Authority will be fully equipped to ensure that the country ’ s most important air asset is set to facilitate the development of the country .
