The African Union's Single African Air Transport Market (SAATM) project has gained momentum with 39 African countries joining the project so far, outgoing African Union (AU) Commissioner for Infrastructure and Energy Amani Abou-Zeid said on Sunday.
Speaking at a press conference on the sidelines of the AU Summit, she said the SAATM was becoming the backbone of Africa in terms of facilitating the African Continental Free Trade Area and the mobility of people.
