Bongani Maseko, Chief executive of Airports Company South Africa, has been appointed to a two-year term as chair of the world governing board of Airports Council International (ACI), the trade representative of the world’s airports. Maseko took up the position after being formally voted in by members at the recent ACI Africa / World General Assembly held in Mauritius. He says he is honoured to take on the role of chair for ACI World. “The confidence that the ACI Assembly has placed in me speaks to the role of African airports in ensuring that they are competing with the best in the world in terms of best practice on airport development, management and operations. “Aviation in Africa is slowly becoming a strong contributor to global economic growth as the tourism industry grows. The next 20 years will see the most growth in passenger numbers coming from Africa,” says Maseko.
