AEROWEST 2026 – A Confluence of Opportunities!

A new chapter begins for aviation & tourism in West & Central Africa - AEROWEST!

AEROWEST is a summit that brings together two of the most powerful, yet interdependent engines of economic growth in Africa: aviation and tourism. Across West and Central Africa, the challenge is clear. Airlines struggle with financing, leasing, insurance, and payment constraints. At the same time, tourism potential remains largely untapped - not due to lack of demand, but because of limited connectivity, high travel costs, and fragmented systems.

The truth is simple: Without aviation, tourism cannot grow. Without tourism, aviation cannot thrive.

AEROWEST 2026 is where these worlds converge.
