Zambesi Airlines Lands In Cape Town

Zambezi Airlines completed its inaugural flight to Cape Town International Airport recently. It will operate a three times a week direct service on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from Livingstone, Zambia, using a Boeing 737-500 aircraft.

Said Deidre Hendricks, Cape Town International’s Communications Manager: “Recently, Turkish Airlines and Emirates Airline increased their number of flights and Air France also announced its non-stop flight between Cape Town International and Paris, Charles de Gaulle with three flights a week. Now Zambezi Airlines will also be flying three times a week. This is all positive news for the airport and Cape Town and certainly a testament to what we have to offer as a region in tourism and business.”
