Fastjet Zimbabwe will commence services to two new destinations in Zimbabwe: Kariba and Hwange National Park by March 2023.
With the first flight frequencies set to take off on 28 March 2023, Fastjet will introduce flights from Harare and Victoria Falls to Kariba Airport and Hwange National Park Airport.
‘We continue to demonstrate our commitment to the growth of tourism and the sustainability of air services in the markets we serve,’ said Fastjet Zimbabwe spokesperson, Nunurai Ndawana.
For flights to Zimbabwe’s top domestic tourism destinations of Kariba and Hwange, Fastjet will be using an Embraer E120, 30-seater turboprop aircraft.
‘The Embraer E120 is a robust turboprop aircraft designed for domestic operations, offering customers a pressurised cabin with spacious leg-room and overhead baggage space,’ Ndawana added. ‘We intend to align our timings to schedule our flights in such a way that we offer customers the flexibility and convenience of multiple frequencies per day.’
Fastjet’s other domestic destinations are Harare, Bulawayo, and Victoria Falls. The new additions will provide straightforward connectivity for international customers flying in from Johannesburg via Victoria Falls to and from Kariba.
