Keeping in view Zimbabwe International Trade Fair, Air Zimbabwe has restored daily flights to Victoria Falls, Bulawayo and Johannesburg to cater to the passenger traffic on this route.
Previous year the airline couldn’t operate to its capacity due to increasing debts. Several flights were cancelled amidst threat from some creditors to impound Airzim aircrafts. Chief executive officer of the airline Mr Innocent Mavhunga has said that domestic flights had been restored last Friday while the Johannesburg flight would be restarted from tomorrow.
The airline is contemplating to use a mix of the Boeing 737 and other smaller aircraft for its domestic operations as per passenger traffic. The Bulawayo flight will help hassle free movement arriving for the trade fair.
Mr Mavhunga is of the opinion that this initiative would have a positive effect on Air Zimbabwe as airline is struggling for existence and paying to its staff as well as facing stiff competition from South African Airways.
