Zimbabwe’s privately owned carrier, Fastjet, will introduce scheduled services between Bulawayo and Victoria Falls next month.
FASTJET BULAWAYO VICTORIA FALLS FLIGHTS
The new service commences on Friday 8 August 2025. Fastjet will offer four weekly rotations on the route.
The airline will operate this route with an Embraer ERJ-135 aircraft.
The narrowbody regional jet is perfectly suited to operate such routes, providing a comfortable flight experience for up to 37 passengers.
“The new Bulawayo to Victoria Falls flight strengthens our presence in Bulawayo and underscores our commitment to the development of tourism region,” Fastjet Zimbabwe spokesperson, Nunurai Ndawana said.
FLIGHT SCHEDULE:
Flight FN8111 Departs Bulawayo at 13.25, arrives in Victoria Falls at 14.20.
Flight FN 8112 Departs Victoria Falls at 14.50, arrives in Bulawayo at 15.45.
Services will operate on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday.
CONNECTING ZIMBABWE
These flights will significantly benefit both business travellers and tourists since they connect the country’s second largest urban centre with the iconic Victoria Falls, which is also seeing immense growth as an urban centre as well as a tourist destination.
Fastjet already operates flights from its hub in Harare to both Bulawayo and Victoria Falls. However, the airline had not yet offered scheduled flights between Zimbabwe’s second largest city, Bulawayo, and Victoria Falls.
“This has been a long time coming. We have been monitoring the development and traffic trends between the manufacturing city of Bulawayo and our tourism hub of Victoria Falls. The introduction of a scheduled service is a result of widespread consultative engagements and collaboration with key players in the industry”. Vivian Ruwuya, Fastjet Zimbabwe Chief Commercial Officer said.
That said, Fastjet now provides connections between Zimbabwe’s three major centres as well as from each of these cities to Johannesburg, South Africa.
Furthermore, the carrier also connects Victoria Falls with the iconic Kruger Park in South Africa.
In addition, the airline has recently introduced flights to Zambia’s capital, Lusaka.
