Welcome on Board FlyWestair
from FlyWestair May 2021
It’s about time here at FlyWestair and that’s why we’re constantly adapting, making changes to our schedule and trying to upgrade our offerings to suit the needs of the flying public. FlyWestair is proud to announce one additional scheduled flight per week between Windhoek (Eros Airport) and Ondangwa (Andimba Toivo Ya Toivo Airport) effective 28 April 2021. This will connect the North of Namibia to Windhoek, and beyond, with a flight every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday.
In addition, FlyWestair also offers scheduled flights from Windhoek (Hosea Kutako International Airport) to Cape Town (Cape Town International Airport) weekly on Fridays and Mondays.
FlyWestair is a proudly Namibian owned and operated airline that is committed to providing a superior travel experience with consistent on-time performance. Our airline remains focused on assisting the Namibian travel and aviation industry recovery in a post-COVID environment.
Since restarting operations in October 2020, we have focused on simplifying the travel experience for all our clients. For international travelers this has been done by offering easy and convenient COVID testing at our Eros Airport offices.
FlyWestair is also excited to announce the addition of a 50 seat Embraer ERJ 145 aircraft. This new addition will predominantly be operating on the Eros – Ondangwa (Andimba Toivo Ya Toivo Airport) route.
Expansions of domestic offering to Katima Mulilo, Rundu and Lüderitz
Having received numerous enquiries from the traveling public we would like to confirm our intention on starting with flights between Windhoek (Eros) and Katima Mulilo, Rundu and Lüderitz. The current delay in starting with these operations is due to delays with the transportation commission of Namibia not being able to approve these routes. FlyWestair would like to assure our clients that the airline has engaged with the Minister of Transport Hon. John Mutorwa on the matter and his office has given us the assurance that the delays will be resolved soon. We will keep all our clients up to date on developments in this regard.
FlyWestair is the first privately owned Namibian airline and forms part of the Westair Aviation Group of Companies. Since starting with scheduled flight operations in June 2019, we have transported more than 35 000 passengers and have maintained an on-time dispatch reliability of 98%. We remain committed in developing and expanding the local Namibian aviation infrastructure by growing and investing back into the local aviation businesses and related services.
If you’re flying with us while reading this, we hope you enjoy your travels. May the pages of our inflight publication continue to inform, inspire and entertain you. We look forward to welcome you on future flights. Stay safe and happy flying.
