Cargo handling services fully recovered by the end of 2021. Revenue from cargo handling increased by 7% to TZS 18.2 Billion (2020: TZS 16.97 Billion). This increase was attributed by a significant increase in flight frequencies handled during the year due to business recovery from COVID-19 and the growth of Air Tanzania operations. Cargo handling revenue represents 60.5% of the total revenues of the company.
Ground handling is expected to fully recover by the end of 2022. These expectations are partly based on recovery business conditions from the impact of COVID-19.
