Uganda's quasi national carrier, Air Uganda, has announced an indefinite suspension of all operations. This follows the withdrawal of International Air Operator Certificates (AOCs) from all airlines registered in Uganda, by the Uganda Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) on 17 June 2014. On 03 July 2014 the airline was therefor already forced to (by that time) temporary suspended all its international flights, including Nairobi, Mombasa (Kenya), Dar es Salaam, Kilimanjaro (Tanzania), Bujumbura (Burundi), Kigali (Rwanda), Mogadishu (Somalia), and Juba (South Sudan). Passengers holding valid Air Uganda tickets should contact Air Uganda (or their travel agent) to get a refund.
