Proflight is strengthening regional connectivity and opening direct access to Namibia from Zambia
Proflight Zambia is expanding its regional footprint with the launch of a new route into Namibia’s capital, Windhoek. The new service, starting on 3 March 2026, will operate three times weekly, providing additional travel options and convenient links between Zambia and Namibia from Lusaka via Livingstone.
This development is expected to significantly boost both leisure and business travel between the two countries, with Proflight Zambia being the only carrier operating direct flights along the route. Proflight Zambia will operate three weekly flights on the route on Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays:
Lusaka – Windhoek 08:30 – 11:35
Livingstone – Windhoek 09:55 – 11:35
Windhoek – Livingstone 12:20 – 13:55
Windhoek – Lusaka 12:20 – 15:20
The Lusaka–Windhoek route will include a brief 30-minute stopover, during which passengers will remain on board, before continuing to their destination, while the Livingstone–Windhoek route will operate as a direct service.
Passengers will also benefit from seamless morning connections from Ndola to Windhoek, as well as evening connections from Windhoek to Ndola, Solwezi, and Mfuwe.
This scheduling allows for convenient and flexible travel plans, making it easier for passengers to explore the cultural and natural wonders of Zambia and Namibia, and underscores Proflight Zambia’s commitment to strengthening regional ties, promoting tourism, and enhancing business opportunities within Southern Africa.
“Proflight Zambia continues to invest in network expansion and is excited to give travellers more choice destinations and greater travel flexibility. The introduction of flights to Windhoek supports growing demand for reliable, comfortable, and efficient travel options in the Southern African region. Namibia is an important neighbour and trade partner, and this route will make travel between our countries more seamless — whether for tourism, business, or family,” said Proflight Zambia Director of Flight Operations, Captain Josias Walubita.
“Not only does this route bring together two iconic destinations such as the Victoria Falls and the Namib Desert, but it also strengthens the aviation bridge across Southern Africa, as well as builds on Proflight’s commitment to unlocking Zambia’s potential as a tourism and trade hub,” he added.
