Fleet
ZanAir (IATA: B4, ICAO: TAN) is Tanzania's regional airline, established in 1992. The carrier operates from its main hub at Abeid Amani Karume International Airport, serving routes across Tanzania and connecting remote communities with scheduled and charter services.
The airline's network focuses on regional connectivity within Tanzania, leveraging its strategic hub location to access secondary and tertiary airports that larger carriers do not serve. This regional focus makes ZanAir an essential transport link for passengers traveling to and from destinations beyond major metropolitan hubs.
ZanAir's fleet comprises Cessna 208 and Cessna 207 aircraft-single and twin-engine turboprops designed for operations on shorter airstrips and in challenging terrain. These aircraft are well-suited to Tanzania's geography and infrastructure, enabling the airline to maintain reliable service to remote regions while keeping operational costs competitive.
