Commenting on the new schedule David Evans, Chief Operating Officer for Zambian Airways said: “We’re delighted to present such a comprehensive schedule for our customers. Not only is Zambian Airways providing more flights and more choice for customers traveling on business, but we are also supporting our local tourism industry with a much greater range of services to leisure customers flying into Zambia from international destinations.

On the three days a week that British Airways flies to Lusaka, Zambian Airways will provide a connection to Mfuwe. There will also be a direct early morning connection from both Livingstone and Ndola to Lusaka to connect to the British Airways flight to London. The overnight stop in Lusaka will be a thing of the past. In the other direction there will also be a direct connection from British Airways to both Livingstone and Ndola.

We haven’t forgotten our local Zambian leisure customers either. Whether you are looking to do a day trip to Johannesburg from Lusaka or Ndola, Zambian Airways will provide you with conveniently timed flights. And for the more adventurous, our new early morning flight on Friday to Dar es Salaam provides the perfect opportunity to take a weekend break in Zanzibar.”
