SAA resumes flights to Zimbabwe

The national carrier had to cancel operations between Johannesburg, Harare and Vic Falls over the weekend.

South African Airways (SAA) has resumed flights to Zimbabwe. Flights between South Africa and Zimbabwe were affected on Saturday due to restrictions imposed by the Zimbabwean authorities on operations. The decision to impose the restriction was based on the requirement from Zimbabwean authorities for SAA to have a Foreign Operators Permit (FOP) to operate in that country.

Since the grounding of SAA’s aircraft, the airline prepared and submitted all required documentation in compliance with the instruction from the Zimbabwean authorities.
