Ravinala Airports received the award: Runner-up in the “Digital Communication & Engagement Awards 2026” competition, category “Digital Innovation and Community Engagement” from ACI Africa or Airports Council International Africa.

ACI Africa brings together African airports and represents their interests at the continental and international levels. This result is the fruit of thorough work and creativity in communication and digital innovation to strengthen community engagement both internally and externally, and to improve and facilitate the passenger experience.

This award encourages us to work even harder on passenger tranquility and the development of positive relationships with the entire community.

Ravinala Airports becomes the first airport manager in the category of less than 2 million passengers to receive this distinction, and in the overall ranking, it ranks second among African airports, just behind Egypt (airport in the category of over 20 million passengers).

Congratulations to all the teams at Ravinala Airports for this achievement.

Paul Lucien — Thu, 05 Feb 2026 08:57:15 +0000

Ravinala Airports celebrated on January 23 in Nosy Be the successful completion of the relocation of the village previously located within the airport zone to the new resettlement village of “Pont Valiha,” also known as “Fascène Nafindra,” marking a major milestone in the development and security of Nosy Be International Airport.

This official ceremony, held in the presence of local authorities, institutional partners, and residents, marks the success of a long-term relocation process that placed the affected communities at the heart of the project, in line with International Finance Corporation (IFC) standards.

Today, Pont Valiha is a self-sufficient village under the responsibility of the Municipality of Nosy Be, equipped with serviced infrastructure, access to water and electricity, and improved living conditions for its residents. Formerly without land titles for their homes located in the airport area, residents are now land title holders, have benefited from more than five years of support in restoring their livelihoods, and have received new homes built according to designs of their choice.

Paul Lucien — Fri, 26 Dec 2025 07:00:37 +0000

Under the sponsorship of the Ministry of Transport and Meteorology, with the support of the Ministry of Justice, Ravinala airports in partnership with BIANCO and ARAI have sensitized our employees and the regals operating at Antananarivo International Airport to the fight against corruption.

The objective is to prevent any involvement exposing staff to the risks of civil or criminal penalties. To strengthen the integrity at the airport, Ravinala Airports has implemented QR reporting codes throughout the departure and arrival route, allowing passengers to alert the BIANCO directly on any incident.

A word from the Managing Director of Ravinala airports, Mr. Daniel LEFEBVRE:
“The safety, the confidence and the serenity of the passengers are at the heart of our priorities.
Together, we are making our airports transparent and responsible places. »

Thank you to all the participants who attended the event and actively contributed to the
exchanges. Your involvement reinforces our common commitment to the integrity and quality of services within the airport community.
