Fastjet announced its newest international routes – from Johannesburg to Harare and Victoria Falls in Zimbabwe.

The launch of these routes comes after Fastjet received clearance from the Zimbabwean and South African governments to operate flights between the two respective countries. 

Return flights from Harare International Airport and Victoria Falls International Airport to Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport will operate using Fastjet’s modern Airbus A319 jet aircraft with seating for up to 144 passengers.

The Johannesburg/Harare route will commence on 1 February 2016 and operate daily with an additional daily flight on this route expected soon, the airline said in a statement.

Flights linking Victoria Falls to and from Johannesburg will initially be three times a week on Sundays, Wednesdays and Fridays, commencing 3 February 2016.
