Zimbabwe airports - list of Zimbabwe international airports
Airports in Zimbabwe
This country on the black continent was able to preserve the virgin nature of Africa, and therefore, despite the long and expensive flight, Russian tourists also fly here on excursions and safaris. Zimbabwe Airport accepts flights from many countries, but it is most convenient for travelers from Moscow to get on the wings of British Airways with a transfer in London or on board Turkish Airlines with a connection in Istanbul. All other options involve double transfers - for example, via Frankfurt and Johannesburg or Amsterdam and Cape Town. Flight time will be at least 15 hours excluding connections.
