AIR NAMIBIA, the national carrier of the Republic of Namibia, is to suspend its twice weekly service between Windhoek and Gatwick. The airline says that due to the current global economic recession it needs to minimize its losses and optimize the opportunities. The last departure outbound from Windhoek will be 28 May returning out of Gatwick 29 May. The airline stresses that the London direct route has only been suspended, until further notice. It will continue to operate five flights per week from its well-established primary European gateway at Frankfurt, offering good connections from the UK. From Namibia it serves other Southern Africa destinations including Cape Town and Johannesburg. The airline will maintain its current presence in the UK via its local office and sales team for the future development of the British market. www.airnamibia.com
