update (27 August 2025): Fastjet Mozambique and Solenta Aviation Mozambique remain in the pre-launch phase with pending regulatory clearance required for scheduled domestic flights, and no formal restart or booking date has yet been disclosed by either carrier or Mozambican authorities as of 27 August 2025.
update (29 July 2025): While Fastjet Mozambique has the regulatory approval and operational setup to relaunch, its operations still remain on hold waiting for the scheduled operator’s licence from the Mozambican civil aviation authority. The only remaining stumbling block appears to be administrative and tied to ongoing industry reforms. Once the licence is issued, Fastjet domestic services in Mozambique are expected to start promptly.
update (23 July 2025): Solenta Aviation Mozambique is ready and awaiting only the final government license to launch scheduled domestic flights under the fastjet brand. The aviation sector in Mozambique is on the cusp of significant change, with fastjet’s return expected to offer more choice and competitive pricing for travellers. Official start dates and route schedules are anticipated as soon as the license is formally issued!
Solenta Aviation Mozambique, a Mozambican-owned airline, is preparing to launch scheduled passenger flights under the fastjet brand in Mozambique. The airline has confirmed that all regulatory milestones required to begin operations have been successfully achieved.
In May 2025, both the business plan and Air Operator Certificate (AOC) were approved by the Mozambican Civil Aviation Institute (IACM), marking a critical step toward reintroducing fastjet-branded scheduled services in Mozambique. The airline has since taken delivery of its aircraft, completed crew and staff recruitment, finalized contracts with suppliers, and fulfilled all necessary regulatory and financial requirements.
The scheduled air service license is now pending final issuance, which is expected shortly.
With over 15 years of operational experience in Mozambique, Solenta Aviation Mozambique has been a key player in supporting the country’s tourism, gas, and mining sectors.
Stay tuned for updates on flight schedules and route announcements as fastjet Mozambique prepares for takeoff.
