Air Seychelles extends its service network to include Dar es Salaam

Air Seychelles, the national airline of the Republic of Seychelles, has recently announced its decision to extend its services to Tanzania’s capital city of Dar es Salaam. The service is scheduled to be launched on the 2^nd of December 2014 that will include twice-weekly flights to the city. The decision to launch flights to Dar es Salaam is taken in consideration to extend its network of flights over the Indian Ocean and Africa.

Air Seychelles has allocated a two-class Airbus A320 accommodating 16 Business Class seats and 120 Economy Class seats for every flight to Dar es Salaam. This is expected to bring a further boost in the economic trade between the two countries, given that Dar es Salaam is one of the fastest growing economic centers of the continent of Africa.

The decision to launch twice-weekly flights to the city has been taken with the intension to promote tourism and traffic flows to Seychelles. Dar es Salaam is also considered to be one of the tourist hubs of Africa and hence is expected to bring a considerable growth margin to the company. It is the hub of some of Tanzania’s top-rated tourist attractions that include Mount Kilimanjaro (the world’s highest free standing mountain), Selous Game Reserve, Serengeti National Park and many more.

The airline prides itself in providing quality air travel services to all its valued passengers. This dedicated commitment of Air Seychelles has resulted in the airline being awarded the title of being one of the leading airlines of the Indian Ocean region. The airline has also secured two coveted accolades at the World Travel Awards Africa & Indian Ocean Gala Ceremony.

Air Seychelles also prides in being a strategic partner with Etihad Airways and continuously strives in achieving its directed goals of offering quality and comfort. Additionally, the airline has also re-started its flagship Paris route along with updated cargo-handling facilities at the main Mahe International airport.
