Travel across some parts of Africa will be easier now.  Proflight Zambia and Fastjet have partnered to allow easier travel between 15 destinations across Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania.

“We have strengthened our partnerships with a number of airlines recently, [such as] Emirates, Kenyan Airways and Ethiopian Airlines as well as Precision Air,” Keira Irwin commercial director told CNBC Africa.

“We are willing to bring in more inclined partners on board to widen our route network that serves the existing travelling public and hoping to expand in small regional destination ourselves.”

Fastjet, an affordable airline based in Tanzania, will mainly service the air link between Dar es Salaam and Lusaka starting in May, including local Tanzanian routes from Dar es Salaam. Proflight will maintain its current domestic routes in Zambia and its link to Lilongwe in Malawi, from Lusaka.
