A promising business partnership
The relationship between Republic of Congo and Corsair have taken a new turn. While some were hoping for Congolese intervention to save the ailing French airline, Brazzaville chose a different path.

- Stimulate economic development and tourism by increasing the number of foreign visitors.
- Strengthen international relations through increased trade.
The future of collaboration
