NINE Airlines have proposed to fly into Zimbabwe this year in a development that could see increased traffic and revenue for the tourism sector if government approves the proposals, businessdigest has established.
The airlines are — Air France, Austrian Airlines, Egypt Air, Swiss Air, Bulgarian Airlines, Qantas, Emirates Airways, KLM and Lufthansa.
However, some aviation experts were sceptical that the Zimbabwean government would grant the airlines licences to fly into the country as it would offer stiff competition to Air Zimbabwe, which they want to protect.
The national airline has been operating at a loss accumulating huge debts since 2000.
Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe public relations and communications manager Annajlia Hungwe on Wednesday told businessdigest that all the airlines had been plying the Zimbabwe route before and none was chased away. The bilateral air services agreement was never cancelled, she said.
