However, almost five years later, the National Institute of Civil Aviation (IACM) says that the country has already returned to pre-pandemic levels, with the sector transporting around 600,000 passengers per year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMozambique has surpassed pre-pandemic levels, as there has been a huge growth in traffic and airlines are returning to flying. The last one missing was Kenya Airways, whose return to regular flights to Maputo International Airport we will see in the coming months,\u201d President of the IACM Board of Directors, Joa\u0303o de Abreu, said a few days ago.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking during the launch of the draft master plan for Mozambique\u2019s civil aviation system, for the period 2025-2037, De Abreu explained that the return of Kenya Airways, like other companies, demonstrates that our country has great potential for generating passenger and air cargo traffic.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, during the 19th Annual Private Sector Conference (CASP), the Confederation of Economic Associations highlighted that the recovery of the tourism sector, after the slowdown caused by Covid-19, was being boosted by the implementation of the Acceleration Measures Package Economic (PAE), through the introduction of the E-Visa, which resulted, at least in 2023, in a significant increase in the entry of tourists, with 47,526 visitors registered \u2013 18,098 through business visas.<\/p>\n<p>The pandemic in 2020 reduced commercial air traffic in all subsectors, registering 40.0% in aircraft per kilometre, 44.8% in passengers transported, 50.6% in cargo transported and 44.3% in mail transported.<\/p>\n<p>In an annual report on transport and communications statistics, the National Statistics Institute (INE) pointed out that, in 2020, 324,000 people were transported, compared to 587,000 registered in 2019. Cargo fell from 4.5 thousand tons in 2019 to 2.2 thousand tons in 2020.<\/p>\n<p>In postal activity, the INE report describes that, in the year under review, general correspondence traffic (national and international) registered 63.7 thousand correspondences (dispatch and reception) and 77.6 thousand parcels. Here, revenue generated fell from 241.7 million meticais in 2019 to 17.7 million meticais in 2020.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
