Air Zimbawe to Kuala Lumpur

Recommended Posts

According to the London office of Air Zimbabwe, the Zimbabwean flag carrier has suspended scheduled flights to Singapore since late August 2009 in favour of Kuala Lumpur. It now flies a once-weekly scheduled flight to Kuala Lumpur every Friday night from Harare and takes off for Beijing on every Saturday morning.

 

The destination move of Air Zimbabwe has indeed caught Sunseekers Travel, GSA of Air Zimbabwe, and Carnival Travel's Singapore subsidiary, unaware for at least three months. Local staff were noticed quoting Singapore - Beijing fares of Air Zimbabwe tickets to walk-in customers through late August to November and Air Zimbabwe's Boeing B767 aircraft could be seen taxiing in Changi Airport during these months, possibly on a chartered basis.

 

Changi Airport has not been notified of Air Zimbabwe's complete withdrawal of flight services to Singapore. The web-site of Changi Airport still lists it as an active flight operator. Air Zimbabwe has plans to restart flights to Guangzhou via Singapore in 2010.

 

The London office of Air Zimbabwe says the GSA of Air Zimbabwe in Singapore can only sell tickets of the regular return Harare-Kuala Lumpur and Kuala Lumpur-Beijing flights to the Singapore travel market until further instructions from Harare.

 

In recent years, Air Zimbabwe has frequently revised its flight schedules to overcome the exorbitant fuel prices and aircraft shortage problems including suspending flights to Dubai, Bangkok (which was added in 2005 after reducing frequency of its Harare-Singapore-Beijing flights from twice-weekly flights to a once-weekly flight) and Guangzhou. Air Zimbabwe has restored flights to Dubai from Harare.

Hmmm, how am I not surprised... Maybe the flight is full of politicians going on educational visits to Zimbabwe... You know, the unofficial 'Look Zimbabwe Policy'

Zimbabweans are very rich people. Virtually all of them are millionaires or billionaires.

 

Even Indonesians pales in comparison.
