LAM - Mozambique Airlines, the national carrier of Mozambique, announced on 18 February 2025 that it has suspended its only intercontinental route, citing the service as "unsustainable." Effective immediately, flights between Maputo International Airport (MPM) in Maputo and Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS) in Lisbon, Portugal, have been discontinued.
In addition, LAM confirmed the suspension of two regional routes - Maputo to RG Mugabe International Airport (HRE) in Harare, Zimbabwe, and Maputo to Kenneth Kaunda International Airport (LUN) in Lusaka, Zambia—due to financial losses.
As a result, the airline now operates only two regional routes: Maputo to OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg, South Africa, and Maputo to Julius Nyerere International Airport (DAR) in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. Meanwhile, the sustainability of LAM’s recently launched service between Maputo and Cape Town International Airport (CPT) in Cape Town, South Afica, remains under evaluation.
