LH flights to boost Vic Falls tourism

Lufthansa Group will next year add a destination which is brand new for the group – Victoria Falls.

From March 30 next year, the group’s leisure brand Eurowings Discover, will operate a tag flight from Windhoek to Victoria Falls Airport in Zimbabwe, three times a week, on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays.

More Frankfurt-Windhoek flights

Dr Andre Schulz, Lufthansa Group’s gm Southern Africa and East Africa, said in a communication to the trade, that the group’s flights to Windhoek have already shown a strong increase in demand, and thanks to these positive booking trends and favourable market conditions, the group would further increase its presence in Namibia from March 30, 2022, by increasing operations to Windhoek from five flights a week to a daily flight schedule. All these flights will be conducted via the group’s leisure airline Eurowings Discover.

The daily flight 4Y132 will leave Frankfurt at 21h50 arriving in Windhoek at 08h20 the following day. The Wednesday, Friday and Sunday flight 4Y132 will then depart Windhoek at 09h15, arriving in Vic Falls at 11h45.
