Airlines in Africa face serious safety challenges. Compared to the rest of the world, airplane fleets in Africa are old, essential maintenance may be ignored, inspectors are undertrained, and oversight is comparatively weak.

These risks are often first seen by passengers, crew, and other airline staff. However, most of the time, the voices of these concerns go unheard. AirJustice Africa was born to combat this silence. We want every traveler in Africa who has seen or experienced a dangerous or potentially dangerous situation to be able to voice their concerns freely and easily. Take back your voice and power today by filing a complaint with AirJustice Africa's help.

Why This Matters

Accident Rate

Africa accounts for about 3.7% of global air traffic but nearly 20% of global accidents.

Risk of Accidents

Aviation accidents in Africa occur at a rate seven times higher than the world average.

Human Cost

Between 2010 and 2020, Africa recorded over 1,500 aviation-related fatalities — one of the highest ratios globally relative to traffic share.

Infrastructure/Oversight Issues

42% of African states lack effective safety oversight systems that meet International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards.

Startling African Aviation Safety Statistics

These statistics demonstrate the need for more available and easy-to-use ways to leave a formal complaint with airlines and oversight authorities. That's where AirJustice Africa comes in.
