East  African regional airlines are now fighting a winning and losing battle over the African skies which Kenya Airways, Ethiopian Airlines and South African Airways have been commanding for decades in the past. Competition over the African skies has been tough after several countries announced their plans to revive their once defunct airlines by the end of 2019, a situation which prompted the three leading air carriers to set up strategies that would make them to remain cruising over the African clear skies. Like a “New wine in Old bottle”, Tanzanian government bought six new planes for the snailing Air Tanzania Company Limited (ATCL), the Tanzania’s national air carrier which has been operating with losses since its establishment in 1977 after the breakup of the East African Airways (EAA) once owned by the three East African states of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.
