Ban on SW flight
Don't forget that if there is a black listing of any kind towards a DCA or CAA by ICAO, IATA looks at it very closely. We must not forget that being in an African Country you run the higher risk of being black listed as a company due to the current affairs that africa is surrounded by internationally. The EU doesn't not take safety as a joke and people need to wake up and smell the coffee cause Southern africa will soon be loosing alot money due to the lack of tourists.
If Namibia is blacklisted all airlines will be forced by the insurance brookers to fly around the Namibian airspace and if the fly in/through the airspace they will not be financially covered by these companies.
Atleas then Air Nam can fly directly to Ghana

I have just run two checks on travel websites in the UK to cover all of September, & funny old thing I can book flights all through September for LGW to WDH rtn. You have been well & truly MISS-INFORMED.

Just read on Die Republikein website that Namibia's national soccer team left on an Air Namibia flight for Ghana. Did they fly to London or Frankfurt and then on another carrier to Ghana or did Air Nam take them directly there? Lets face it, Nam isnt known for their Soccer stars and Air Nam isnt really rolling in the money so I really hope the latter isnt true!

Air Nam did a technical stop in Ghana on their way from London to Windhoek. I believe that they operate anyway a flight between London and Accra on behalf of another airline. So its not much of a dogleg they have to fly.

Yes indeed. We (I mean Oasis Hong Kong) are going to operate the Gatwick and Frankfurt with our 744 , starting end of March, for 4 to 5 weeks, while Air Namibia has its 340 in the hangar.
Oasis is getting its 5th 744 within a couple of weeks, and the a/c was available for lease untill some time in the summer when we'll start to fly to our new destination...
FYI: Our 744 are ex Singapore (A § B), and ANA (C,D,E). The Cpt (and many F/O's) are all ex BA or Cathay.Other F/O's from the rest of the world..
I'll be operating some of those flights as F/O. Could someone from Air Namibia tell me if, while I'll be there, I'll have a chance to have a jumpseat or reduced fair with you guys, for flight to Capetown or Victoria falls ?? Any contact?
Thanks!
