This was my first booking and I used Alternative Airlines twice on this trip. I must say by far the best online booking experience ever.

So easy to use and the payment options are very helpful when you need to book a ticket and you may not have the full amount at the moment. Really recommend Alternative Airlines to my clients and friends.

What a great way to be able to see my family back in South Africa. This is made possible since we can buy our tickets and pay it off over 4 months. With the price of flight tickets so high Alternative Airlines has been a literal lifesaver!

Hub Airport

Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport

Robert Gabriel Mugabe International, previously knowns as Harare International Airport is the main and largest airport in Zimbabwe and the current hub for Air Zimbabwe, FastJet Zimbabwe and will be the future hub of Emerald Airlines. 

The airport opened in 1957 and has traditionally only been served by African carriers, due to the lack of tourism in Zimbabwe. Currently, the only non-African airlines to serve the airport are British Airways and Emirates

Robert Gabriel Mugabe International was named Harare International Airport up until 2017 when the airport was renamed after former president Robert Mugabe.
