  • I thought Comair stopped before May.

    People will need to find different a way into Livingstone. Mil is arriving on Proflight via Lusaka, Zambia. She is either flying Qatar or Emirates to Lusaka. Another option is to fly into Victoria Falls airport in Zimbabwe. Unless, Tauck changes their policy, It will be a pain to get a transfer from Vic Falls airport to Livingstone- Tauck wasn’t providing transfers. There are a few options getting into Vic Falls- Turkish, Ethiopian, etc.

    I think it affects Zimbabwe too, thay’s why we had to cancel the new Botswana tour this year, there were no flight choices apart from a 23 hour layover in CapeTown or Jo’burg, I can’t remembering which now.

    I'm flying Emirates direct flight into Lusaka- 2 hour layover and then Proflight from Lusaka to Livingstone and hour and a half , They also flight from Johannesburg. - Prices are great too and the Lusaka airport is new.
