“FlyNamibia deeply regrets the unexpected cancellation of its scheduled flights to and from Lüderitz Airport. Safety remains our utmost priority at FlyNamibia, and we are committed to adhering to all safety regulations and guidelines set by the relevant authorities. According to aviation regulations, it is imperative that airports have a functioning fire-fighting vehicle on standby to ensure the safety of passengers and crew in case of emergencies,” the airline said on Thursday.

“Therefore, our decision to cancel flights today is rooted in our commitment to passenger safety and compliance with aviation regulations. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may cause to our valued passengers, and we understand the importance of reliable air travel services.”

The airliner said it was working closely with the NAC to address the issue promptly.

“FlyNamibia remains committed to providing safe, reliable, and comfortable air travel experiences for our passengers. We are grateful for your understanding and patience during this temporary disruption, and we will do our utmost to minimize any inconvenience caused.”

In August, FlyNamibia launched weekday flights connecting Eros Airport in Windhoek to Lüderitz through a partnership with TotalEnergies EP Namibia.

FlyNamibia currently operates domestic routes from Eros Airport in Windhoek to Ondangwa, Katima Mulilo, Lüderitz, and Oranjemund, as well as regional routes between Hosea Kutako International Airport and Cape Town International, as well as Walvis Bay International Airport and Cape Town International.
