Air Zimbabwe Partners with ZTA to Launch Flights to Masvingo Ahead of Sanganai/Hlanganani/Dzimbahwe World Tourism Expo
Air Zimbabwe, in partnership with the Zimbabwe Tourism Authority (ZTA) and the Ministry of Tourism and Hospitality Industry, has commenced scheduled air services between Harare and Masvingo, as well as Victoria Falls and Masvingo, ahead of the Sanganai/Hlanganani/Dzimbahwe World Tourism Expo, which is being held in Masvingo from 9 to 12 September 2026.
The flights, operating from 5 to 12 September 2026, are providing convenient travel options for exhibitors, buyers, delegates and visitors attending the Expo, while supporting increased visitor movement and economic activity in Masvingo and the surrounding areas.
The first flights operated today, with Air Zimbabwe operating three flights between Harare and Masvingo, including return flights to Harare. The airline is also operating flights between Victoria Falls and Masvingo during the Expo period.
The strong passenger turnout on the inaugural flights reflects significant demand for the new connections and highlights the importance of improved air connectivity to Masvingo, particularly as the province hosts one of Zimbabwe’s major tourism industry events.
The launch of these flights underscores Air Zimbabwe’s continued commitment to strengthening domestic connectivity and improving access to key national events and destinations. The initiative also contributes to broader national efforts to grow the tourism sector by enhancing connectivity to provinces with significant tourism, heritage and investment potential.
The flights are being operated using ATR 42 and Dash 8 aircraft, with Air Zimbabwe working closely with the Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe (CAAZ), Airports Company of Zimbabwe (ACZ) and National Handling Services (NHS) to ensure that the necessary infrastructure and operational support are in place for the smooth and efficient operation of the flights.
