South African low-budget airline FlySafair plans to begin offering two additional flights per week between Cape Town and Windhoek, starting on October 22, 2024.
The new service will increase the frequency of flights between these two cities.
This development comes after the airline was awarded rights by the International Air Services Council last year to operate routes between Johannesburg, Windhoek, Harare, and Zanzibar. In addition to these new routes, FlySafair was awarded five additional frequencies on their Mauritius route, enabling the airline to offer daily flights.
FlySafair has become the dominant player in South Africa’s domestic market, with a market share of 60%. Pre-pandemic, the airline held about 25% of seat capacity.
