Airlink to resume Nampula flights

08 Jan 2025
Comments | 0

Airlink is resuming flights to and from Nampula, Mozambique from today, January 9.

The carrier’s decision to resume flights to Nampula follows reassurances from South African and Mozambican authorities that the situation has been adequately defused to permit flights to Nampula without Airlink aircraft being unlawfully impounded upon arrival at the airport. 

“While an attempt to seize our aircraft remains a possibility as long as the Nampula Provincial Court order has not been withdrawn, we have been assured that local officials will not attempt to execute it. We maintain the court order, along with the claim against Airlink by two passengers who were recently offloaded from one of our flights after their unruly and threatening behaviour, are flawed and without merit,” said Airlink CEO and Managing Director, Rodger Foster. 

“On behalf of Airlink, I wish to apologise to our customers who were inconvenienced by yesterday’s cancelled flights and thank them for their understanding. Similarly, we are grateful for the interventions and guidance by the Department of International Relations & Cooperation, the Department of Transport, the SA Civil Aviation Authority and their counterparts at the Mozambique Ministry of Transport and the Instituto de Aviação Civil de Moçambique,” added Foster.

Airlink will continue to monitor the situation.
