Case Study: AireonFLOW Boosts Air Traffic Safety at AFCON 2024

In February 2024, Côte d’Ivoire became the center of the football world, playing host to the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), the premier African football tournament. During the month-long event, thousands of spectators flocked to the West African nation.

For ASECNA, the Air Navigation Service Provider for Côte d’Ivoire and 17 other nations, this meant handling the complex and unique air traffic flows that a high-profile event like this brings, including an increase in international traffic, VIP flights, business aviation aircraft, and commercial air traffic.

But thanks to the skill of ASECNA’s air traffic controllers, and supported by AireonFLOW air traffic management product, air traffic flowed in and out of the region safely and efficiently.
