Zanzibar Airport also known as Abeid Amani Karume International Airport (IATA: ZNZ, ICAO: HTZA) (Swahili: Uwanja wa Ndege wa Kimataifa wa Abeid Amani Karume) is the main airport in the Zanzibar Archipelago located on Unguja Island. It is about 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) south of Zanzibar City, the capital of Zanzibar. It was previously known as Kisauni Airport and Zanzibar International Airport. It was renamed in 2010 in honour of Abeid Amani Karume, the island’s first president. The airport has flights to East Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. A new passenger terminal is under construction and is expected to be operational in 2014.

Zanzibar Airport Terminal 1 is active for all landing aircraft. A new shelter on the entrance of the airport has been put in place. Construction of the second terminal started in January 2011 by the Chinese Beijing Construction Engineering Group. A new apron of 100,000 square metres (1,100,000 sq ft) will replace the existing 21,000 square metres (230,000 sq ft). The project is estimated to cost about US $70.4 million. On completion, it will have the capacity to serve up to 1.5 million passengers per year.
