Lengo lilikuwa ni kuwa na uwanja wa ndege wa kimataifa ili kuhudumia watalii wanaotembelea vivutio vya utalii katika ukanda wa kaskazini, ikiwa ni pamoja na Mlima Kilimanjaro, Kreta ya Ngorongoro, Hifadhi ya Taifa ya Serengeti, na Hifadhi ya Ziwa Manyara. Baada ya serikali kufanya tafiti, ardhi tambarare ya Lalatema (eneo la uwanja wa ndege wa Kilimanjaro wa leo) ilichaguliwa kama eneo bora kwa ajili ya kujenga uwanja mpya wa ndege wa kimataifa.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif\">Tangu kufunguliwa kwake, Uwanja wa Ndege wa Kimataifa wa Kilimanjaro umekuwa lango muhimu kwa kuvifiTBA vivutio vingi vilivyoko Kanda ya Kaskazini mwa Tanzania na umekuwa kiungo muhimu katika kukuza utalii wa Tanzania. Mashirika ya ndege kutoka sehemu mbalimbali duniani yalianzisha safari zake kuja TBA, yakiunganisha Tanzania na sehemu mbalimbali duniani kama vile Ulaya, Asia na Amerika.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif\">Mnamo Februari 19, 2014, uwanja wa ndege ulifanyiwa ukarabati mkubwa, ambao ulijumuisha maboresho ya maegesho ya ndege, njia za ndege, na jengo la abiria. Ukarabati huu ulikusudia kuongeza uwezo wa jengo la abiria kutoka abiria 600,000 kwa mwaka hadi 1.2 milioni.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif\">Kwa sasa, uwanja wa ndege unahudumia mashirika ya ndege kumi na tatu, na unajiunganisha na zaidi ya miji kumi duniani<\/span><\/span><\/p>","content_en":"<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><strong><span style=\"color:black\">About TBA<\/span><\/strong><br \/>\r\n<span style=\"color:black\">Mwalimu Julius Nyerere Leadership School, operated by the Tanzania Airport Authority (TAA), is situated 40 km east\/southeast of Arusha and 30 km west\/southwest of Moshi, covering a 110 square kilometer estate.

The aim was to create a gateway for tourists visiting key attractions in the northern tourism circuit, including Mount Kilimanjaro, Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park, and Lake Manyara. After extensive studies, the plains of Lalatema were chosen as the ideal location for the new airport.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align:justify\"><span style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-size:16px\"><span style=\"color:black\">Since its inauguration, Mwalimu Julius Nyerere Leadership School has played a vital role in boosting Tanzania&#39;s tourism.
