Air Travel Options Commentary Our
flight via American Airlines and SN Brussels says a
lot for their new alliance, which allows access to
Africa from over 30 U.S. locations. We boarded in
Vancouver on Canada's Pacific Coast and had one of
the most perfect, seamless trips ever, even though
we touched down in Dallas and Chicago en route to
Brussels. U.S. customs was cleared in Vancouver,
and our luggage was checked through all the way to
Entebbe, a further convenience." ENTEBBE UPGRADES TO ACCOMMODATE FUTURE

commence in June 2006. Other modifications include
expansion of the arrivals hall and duty free areas.
CAA Public Relations Manager Mr. Ignie Igundura
says as well as an additional two bridges at a
later stage, the old airport will simultaneously be
re-developed to cater to General Aviation
