Hahnair at AviaDev Africa in Botswana
Our colleagues Candy Shinondo Kasonkomona, Regional VP Agency Distribution, Johan Pauwels, Regional Vice President Airline Business, and Vincent Peilho-Ndoricimpa, Account Manager, represented Hahnair at AviaDev Africa 2026 in Gaborone, Botswana.
The conference brought together airlines, airports, agencies, suppliers, and industry leaders to discuss the future of African aviation, the challenges ahead, and the opportunities waiting to be unlocked.
A special highlight was Candy moderating a thought-provoking panel on what is needed to build aviation businesses for today’s realities. The discussion explored how the industry can better capture revenue, manage costs intelligently, and use technology, data, AI, and payments to support sustainable growth.
As one participant shared, Candy’s session was a powerful reminder that meaningful progress requires collaboration from all stakeholders, and that each of us has a role to play in shaping the future of African aviation.
Thank you to the AviaDev Africa team, our partners, and everyone who joined the conversations in Botswana. The opportunities are undeniable, and now it is time to turn insights into action💜
