Proflight Zambia has suspended Harare-Lusaka flights at a time RwandAir has discontinued services in bond citing challenges repatriation of funds
Proflight, which resumed the Lusaka-Harare route last July flying four times a week, said it was suspending the route effective January 29 because it was failing to repatriate its funds.
“We regret to announce that due to the current situation in Zimbabwe and ongoing challenges with the repatriation of funds from Zimbabwe, we are temporarily suspending our Lusaka/ Harare route effective 29 January until 1 March. All passengers will be refunded in full for tickets purchased for travel during this period,” director of government and industry affairs Philip Lemba said in a statement yesterday.
The airline flies from Lusaka to Durban in South Africa and Lilongwe in Malawi, over and above linking all the main provincial centres within Zambia.
The airline said it will only be issuing tickets in hard currency.
“RwandAir would like to announce its decision to withdraw ticketing authority effective 24 January 2019 from Zimbabwe BSP. All tickets sales will be issued in United States dollars (USD),” RwandAir said in a statement yesterday.
The airline added that it will also accept internationally issued credit cards.
RwandAir began its flights between Kigali and Harare in April 2017 and also plied the Harare-Cape Town route. Source – newsday
