Exciting news for travellers - Airlink is growing bigger, providing more connections between African countries. 

The airline has added an extra daily flight to Walvis Bay, Namibia. 

" This is a second daily flight that Airlink introduced on the 4th of July 2025 in response to increased demand for travel on the route," says Airlink's Public Relations officer, Linden Birns.  

These are the details for the daily schedule on that route: 

Flight no: 4Z 141 Johannesburg – Walvis Bay Departs: 10.20 Arrives: 12.55

Flight no: 4Z 142 Walvis Bay – Johannesburg Departs: 13.40 Arrives: 15.45

Flight no: 4Z 143 Johannesburg – Walvis Bay Departs: 14.05 Arrives: 16.40

Flight no: 4Z 144 Walvis Bay – Johannesburg Departs: 17.25 Arrives: 19.45. 

The airline is also "considering the viability of launching flights to Nacala," says Birns. 

“As an airline responsive to the evolving needs of its customers and markets, Airlink regularly engages with destination representatives to explore network opportunities. This includes Mozambique, which is an important Airlink market where we currently provide scheduled services between South Africa and Maputo, Beira, Nampula, Vilanculos, Pemba and Tete," says Airlink CEO, de Villiers Engelbrecht. 

Tourists to Johannesburg 

Johannesburg is one of the leading tourist destinations in South Africa. 

The city has world-class entertainment facilities. 

Many people travel to the city to visit the national parks, where they may observe the Big Five, shop in some of the largest malls in Africa, savour traditional food at well-known restaurants, and tour Soweto to see the former homes of two global icons, the late Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu.

In April 2024, Mozambique was the second-largest source of tourists for South Africa within the SADC region.
