Grand Reef Airstrip in Mutare is undergoing rehabilitation ahead of the Sanganai/Hlanganani World Travel Expo, which will be running from September 10 to 12 in Manicaland Province.
This development comes after the Government recently said it was moving to resuscitate all the country’s aerodromes.
This Thursday, Transport and Infrastructural Development Minister Felix Mhona, Tourism and Hospitality Industry Minister Barbara Rwodzi and senior Government officials visited Grand Reef Airstrip to assess progress.
Their visit comes after the national airline, Air Zimbabwe, is set to introduce daily return flights between Harare and Mutare from September 8 to 14 to support the Sanganai/Hlanganani World Travel Expo.
Air Zimbabwe said the new service is part of its turnaround strategy aimed at expanding its route network, improving domestic connectivity and strengthening Zimbabwe’s tourism industry.
The Eastern Highlands is among the country’s most scenic destinations and will be hosting the international tourism showcase for the first time.—SundayMail
