Since 2015, the Western Cape has established direct air links to ten new African destinations, including Addis Ababa, Harare, Victoria Falls, Maun, Maputo, Livingstone, Kigali, Nairobi and, as of June this year, Manzini and Lusaka.
The Western Cape Government has emphasised its commitment to maximising the potential of the province’s tourism and hospitality sectors in order to boost economic growth and job creation by increasing the number of flights into the province, particularly from North and West African regions.According to the most recent data, international tourists who visited the Western Cape in the past year contributed an impressive R24.3 billion to the local economy, supporting a substantial 10 600 jobs.
Since 2015, Cape Town and the broader Western Cape have established direct air links to ten new African destinations, including Addis Ababa, Harare, Victoria Falls, Maun, Maputo, Livingstone, Kigali, Nairobi and, as of June this year, Manzini and Lusaka. ‘Together with the Cape Town Air Access team, powered by Wesgro, we work hard to attract more flights to the Western Cape, because more tourists mean more jobs,’ she said.
‘Not only do these flights boost tourism, but they also provide great opportunities to export proudly Western Cape products via air cargo, as well as easier access for business travel, which can boost investment into the province,’ said Minister Wenger. The Cape Town Air Access project’s objective is to enhance air connectivity to the Western Cape, increasing international passenger traffic and air freight capacity, thus improving business competitiveness and positioning the region as a global access hub.
