Somalia, UAE sign bilateral aviation agreement

MOGADISHU (HOL) — Somalia’s government and the United Arab Emirates signed a preliminary aviation agreement on Sunday, a move that many expect would ease restrictions on air travels between the two countries.

The memorandum of understanding by the UAE foreign minister Sheikh Abdullahi Bin Zayid who arrived in the Somali capital and his Somalia counterpart Abdasalan Hadliye is parts of negotiations between the two countries as the UAE ponders to undertake more development projects including hospitals and police stations across the horn of Africa nation.

“This is a very encouraging step that would help Somalia on the recovery of the infrastructure, peace restoration, political stability and economic development.” said Hassan Sheikh Mohamud, Somalia’s president after the signature of the agreement.

Under the new agreement, UAE-owned airlines would start flying to Somalia after more than two decades of war in Somalia.

United Arab Emirates often imposes restriction of Somali passport holders travelling to their country as its missing on the list of visa-free countries that allow travels for Somali citizens.
Mr. Zayid on his part vowed his country would boost support for Somalia, urging other Gulf countries to follow suit.

The development comes one year after Somalia regained its airspace control after a long period of management by the Civil Aviation Caretaker Authority for Somalia (CACAS). SCAMA in conjunction with the International Civil Aviation Organizations also finalized a process in 2014 to transfer control of Somalia's airspace to the new Air Space Management Centre in the capital.

They won't totally die, but their profits will but cut by 70%.

Still there are destinations within Somalia where their services are needed and these big airlines won't go due to infrastructure issues or security related events.

Somali airlines were shit anyway they changed my flight date without any notice and I ended up missing my flight and they refused to refund me. I say good riddance very unprofessional. I welcome this.

I couldn't agree with you more, they turned my Somali trip back in 2012 into a hell-hole. They treat you like luggage rather than a passenger.
From Dubai my final destination was Galkayo. It took 10 hours to reach, due to going in circles. Landed in Djoubti, and kept on the plane while we waited for another plane to arrive to pick up more passengers than Hargesya, than Berbera where we waited to refuel than Mogadishu and than took another flight to Galkayo from there. Won't be missing those days.

I just can't wait for the Bosaso airport to be completed so I can catch a direct flight from Dubai.

Future looks bright.

I would have preferred to use Somali airlines just to keep them alive. Why did they have to treat their own customers so bad. It's not even hard to treat them right.

Planes stopping everywhere problem could have easily solved by deciding on a hub. Hargesia or Mogadishu would be a good hub for those airlines. Just get all planes to fly into the hub from everywhere and then fly out to either Dubai or Nairobi. Or maybe even directly to the EU but then they're so bad that the EU banned them.

[mahoka]

I am very confused what somalia Airlines got to do with hargeisa.

[TheCadaanGuy]

I'm talking about Somali based airlines i.e. Somalis who own airline. Not the one back then.

Good riddance to the so-called Somali airlines. These people did not care about the safety, courtesy, and well-being of their travelers, but only a profit. They sell you tickets where the planes were already full; once they get to Somalia, they don't care about the safety and courtesy of their fellow Somali travelers; and people can die or suffocate in their unsafe planes in local connecting flights inside Somalia. I've heard Somali airlines getting punished in Dubai due to many complaints that Somali travelers made to UAE aviation authorities once they get to UAE.

To us as travelers, it is a win-win situation for us. We will at least get a better service and reliable flights.

Daalo airways is rubbish. African express (or was it airways) is even worse. Jubba is semi-crap.
