After more than two years of suspension due to conflict, Khartoum International Airport (KRT) has finally reopened to commercial flights. This marks a significant milestone for Sudan as it begins to reconnect with the world. The resumption of flights is crucial for the country's recovery and rebuilding efforts. It was reported that the first commercial flight to land was from Ethiopian Airlines, a major player in the African aviation industry.
From an aviation photography perspective, this event presents a unique opportunity to capture the rebirth of aviation in a region that has been largely inaccessible. The return of commercial flights might also mean spotting some interesting aircraft and liveries that haven't been seen on Sudanese soil for a while.
As enthusiasts, what do you think this reopening means for aviation in Sudan? Are there any particular airlines or aircraft types you're hoping to spot now that Khartoum is back on the map? Share your thoughts and any photos if you've had the chance to visit KRT recently!
