The plane orders

If you look in zimbabwesituation.com, you'll see that all further fleet purchases are cancelled. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.89.38.90 (talk) 13:12, 10 December 2006 (UTC).

Hoax part

The bad publicity part of the section looks to me as being very poorly written. Even if it is true it should be written in way that best suits an encyclopedia.--Lookingthrough (talk) 20:58, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Fleet: Airbus A300/A310

I think i've been flying FRA-HRE in an Air Zimbabwe Airbus A300/A310, which is not mentioned in the fleet section — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.135.240.17 (talk) 14:21, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Do you have a source for that? Personal experiences are not valid sources for Misplaced Pages.--Jetstreamer  22:06, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Destinations a mess

WHAT are current destinations, the destinations list which should go into a sub page are showing past ones and no reference to what is still served 68.4.154.12 (talk) 19:09, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

Do you have a source showing current destinations? Links to current timetables of any sort are dead at the airline's web page.--Jetstreamer  19:19, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

LGW not served

The airline is not currently serving London, as pointed out in the reference below. I've marked it as terminated in the destinations table accordingly.

• "flyafrica.com and fastjet give Zimbabwe its first taste of LCCs with local start-up". Centre for Aviation. 2 July 2014. Archived from the original on 2 July 2014. Earlier plans to launch several regional international destinations and London in late 2013 have never materialised.
