African low-cost airline, fastjet, will add additional flight frequencies from Bulawayo’s JM Nkomo International Airport (BUQ) to Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport (JNB), starting October 30.

The service will increase from a daily service to 12 weekly flights with the re-introduction of a morning service, adding a choice of frequencies and flexibility for travel between these cities.

The additional flight schedule will operate Mondays to Fridays, with an early departure from JNB at 06h50, arriving in BUQ at 08h10. Departures from BUQ will be at 08h50, arriving in JNB at 10h10.

These flights are in addition to the daily evening return rotation between the two cities.

The new flights are available for booking via the fastjet website, Mobile App and usual online trade portals.

Fastjet CCO, Vivian Ruwuya, commented: “As a proud Zimbabwean airline, we remain committed to connectivity. These extra frequencies will greatly enhance the flexibility we offer. By selecting the best of our new fare families to suit the traveller’s requirements, these new flights will greatly improve the products we offer at fastjet.”
