This suspension impacts the airline’s flights between Harare and Johannesburg, Bulawayo and Johannesburg and also Victoria Falls and Johannesburg. flyafrica Zimbabwe has taken this step to provide some certainty to its loyal customers while it seeks to resolve with the regulating authority how to resolve the fraudulent and illegal actions of its Zimbabwean partner, Chakanyuka Karase, who unilaterally surrendered the AOC to the Zimbabwean authorities.
Although constructive dialogue is underway with CAAZ, rather than create continued uncertainty for flyafrica Zimbabwe’s customers booked on flights over the next few days on whether flights will operate or not, the airline has taken the difficult decision to suspend all flights for this period to allow time for resolution between the airline and CAAZ.
