JAN 10, 2005 (newstodate): Uganda is taking up fight to make Entebbe a better choice for cargo operators.
Kenya Airport is today the prime mover of fish exports to Europe from Lake Victoria due to lower airport fuel prices.
According to press reports, the Ugandan CAA will construct a fuel landing site on Lake Victoria, near its new headquarters, allowing jet fuel to be sailed from across the lake and distributed to the airport in pipelines. This would significantly reduce the price of jet fuel, now taken by ship from Kenya to Kampala and tranaported by surface before hitting Entebbe Airport.
