Soon there will be direct flights to Oliver Tambo Int. Airport & Dubai (FlyDubai) once the new terminal is complete.
It looks its the final design to one I posted earlier (which seems was a concept design).
According to the Minister of Foreign Affairs budget speech, Fly Dubai will later start flying to Mwanza and Mbeya.

This is an airport in Ireland built by BAM (same contractor for JNIA and KIA). It looks almost identical to the proposed Mwanza Airport.
How come control tower is short? Is it on a hill or something?
My comments:
1. Design is not progressive, leaves much to be desired
2. Instead of improving previous concept designs they have totally gone backwards
3. Design suited for a upcountry town bus terminal or railway station and NOT for a City
4. There is highway/road between the terminal building and aircraft ramp!!! I don't get it!
5. No single air bridge!...the previous design had 5 air bridges
6. International lounge capacity is only 150 max at a time...ANY 1 wide body aircraft lands will be a logistic disaster
7. What happened to earlier design?
8. Has standards dropped since TAA became under TANROADS?
9. It has high time Tanzania establish a stakeholders board/forum that people can object such unsustainable out of date designs

That is why 767F aftermarket is so lucrative. Prioritize cargo over fuel.
