Namibian airline FlyWestair will become the first privately owned airline in the history of independent Namibia to operate a scheduled passenger route between Hosea Kutako International Airport (WDH) in Windhoek and OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg. Effective 02 November 2020, the airline will initially operate two scheduled flights per week designed to connect with various international airlines through Johannesburg. One such connection is with Qatar Airways, which recently cancelled its direct flights between Hamad International Airport (DOH) in Doha and Windhoek.
FlyWestair will also resume its service to Cape Town International Airport (CPT) in Cape Town. Effective 23 October 2020, the airline will operate two weekly flights per week on on Mondays and Fridays between Hosea Kutako International Airport (WDH) in Windhoek and Cape Town International Airport (CPT).
Since domestic travel restrictions in Namibia were lifted, FlyWestair has been operating two flights per week between Eros Airport (ERS) in Windhoek and Andimba Toivo ya Toivo Airport /Ondangwa Airport (OND) in Ondangwa, each Friday and Sunday. These frequencies will increase with the addition of a mid-week return flight to Ondangwa every Wednesday, starting on 28 October 2020.
According to Frederico Ribeiro, Business Development Manager for FlyWestair, all tickets booked with FlyWestair will be fully refundable and 100% flexible. There will be no cost to change flights and passengers will get their money back if one cancels. Passengers who have booked tickets with the airline and opted to hold their tickets will be able to rebook on the current schedules at no additional costs.
