Air Botswana reintroduces the Kasane /Johannesburg direct service
With the arrival of the airline’s second new ATR72-500 in May 2009, direct flights between Johannesburg and Kasane have been re-instated. This is welcome news for tour operators and visitors alike, eliminating the need for passengers heading for Chobe National Park to route via Gaborone or Livingstone, thereby reducing journey time considerably.
The 2 hour 20 minute flight is currently scheduled 3 times per week in both directions and will remain in place until at least the 28th November, when timetables will again be revised. With Johannesburg acting as the gateway for many international travellers, the reintroduction of this flight route is of great benefit to both countries.
