Zambia Airways is thrilled to announce the expansion of its passenger services to East Africa, with the introduction of new routes to Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, and Nairobi, Kenya. These flights will commence on June 27, 2024, and will operate three times a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
The new service, designated as flight ZN 504, will depart from Lusaka (LUN), the capital of Zambia, to Dar es Salaam (DAR) and Nairobi (NBO). The flights are scheduled to depart Lusaka at 08:00 AM and arrive in Dar es Salaam at 10:30 AM, with a short layover before continuing to Nairobi, landing at 01:00 PM. This timing allows passengers ample time during the day to commence their activities in either city.
The return flight will follow a similar schedule, ensuring a seamless travel experience for all passengers. This expansion is a significant milestone for Zambia Airways as it broadens its network and strengthens regional ties. The addition of these routes is expected to boost the airline’s growth and contribute positively to the economic development of Zambia and its East African counterparts.
Passengers can look forward to experiencing Zambia Airways’ renowned hospitality and reliable service on these new flights. The airline’s CEO, Thomas Woldesenbet, emphasized the importance of enhancing regional connectivity and making air transport services affordable for a wide range of customers. The launch of services to Dar es Salaam and Nairobi will further strengthen the ties between Zambia and its East African counterparts, fostering trade and tourism.
