FlyNamibia says it has transported 5,000 passengers since the launch of its partnership with TotalEnergies on the Windhoek to Lüderitz route on 1 July 2023.
With TotalEnergies’ support, FlyNamibia is set to expand the capacity on the daily Windhoek to Lüderitz route, to meet the growing demand for travel in the region.
In a bid to enhance the sustainability of the route, FlyNamibia has implemented several strategic changes.
“This includes the adoption of dynamic pricing, effective from 18 April 2024, aimed at offering more flexible travel options to passengers. Additionally, potential adjustments to flight schedules are being considered to better cater to the needs of travellers,” Andre Compion, Managing Director of FlyNamibia.
He noted that a key development in FlyNamibia’s commitment to providing top-notch service is the inauguration of a new office in Lüderitz, situated at the Lüderitz Waterfront (Old Power Station).
He further expressed gratitude for the enduring partnership with TotalEnergies, emphasising the company’s dedication to continuously adapting and improving services for customers.
Laurent Roché, Country Chair of TotalEnergies, echoed Compion’s sentiments, highlighting the success of the Windhoek-Lüderitz route and the importance of maintaining its sustainability.
“Having taken part in the opening of the Windhoek-Lüderitz route, I am delighted to see the success of it and I am confident that these changes are geared towards maintaining route sustainability, making it self- sufficient and ensuring affordable access to the Lüderitz community,” he said.
The operational updates introduced by FlyNamibia are aimed at benefiting consumers by providing more flexible travel options while maintaining high service standards.
“FlyNamibia and TotalEnergies are dedicated to serving our community and boosting economic growth and to upholding the high standards of service and reliability that define our operations,” the airline said.
