Zimbabwe: Air Zimbabwe continues servicing Harare - Mutare - Victoria Falls route!

Air Zimbabwe, the national flag carrier of Zimbabwe, has confirmed the continuation of its Harare – Mutare – Victoria Falls route beyond the conclusion of the 15th edition of the Sanganai/Hlanganani/Kumbanai World Tourism Expo 2025, which recently took place at Mutare Sports Club in Mutare.
Originally introduced to facilitate convenient travel for delegates and exhibitors attending the country’s premier tourism trade fair, the route has quickly gained popularity with both domestic and international travellers.
Effective immediately, Air Zimbabwe will operate the Harare – Mutare – Victoria Falls service daily, giving travellers a seamless way to explore Zimbabwe's diverse attractions. Mutare, often called the “Gateway to the Eastern Highlands,” is known for its stunning mountain scenery, lush forests, and outdoor adventures in destinations such as Nyanga National Park, Vumba Botanical Gardens, and Chimanimani Mountains. With this daily connection, visitors can now easily combine the cultural charm and natural beauty of Mutare with the awe-inspiring spectacle of Victoria Falls, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Africa’s most iconic natural wonders.
This expansion underscores Air Zimbabwe’s commitment to boosting domestic tourism, improving regional connectivity, and supporting economic growth through enhanced accessibility to key destinations.
