Low-cost carrier, Flyafrica Zimbabwe, will re-launch operations within the next two weeks.
While launch dates have not yet been set, the airline says it will first start daily return flights from Harare to Bulawayo to Victoria Falls.
The airline also plans to launch daily return flights from Harare to Johannesburg and thrice- weekly return flights from Bulawayo to Johannesburg once its Foreign Operators Permit is renewed in mid-July. Thereafter, the airline plans to increase its HRE-JNB flights to a double-daily service. Flights to Gaborone and Lusaka are also in the pipeline.
Cassidy Mugwagwa, Chairperson of Flyafrica Zimbabwe, says his company has invested R85m ($6.6m) into the airline’s operations in anticipation of the relaunch. The airline has acquired two B737-700s which are currently undergoing pre-delivery maintenance checks. The airline has also established offices at Harare International Airport, he says.
In December, Flyafrica Zimbabwe announced plans to partner with a SA carrier on its HRE-JNB route. Mugwagwa said details on this partnership and the airline’s new CEO would be announced after the relaunch.
