In early March, FlyNamibia took the tourism world by storm as they attended and participated in the world’s largest tourism Expo, ITB Berlin. Together with the Namibia Tourism Board and several other tourism operators, FlyNamibia’s team had three full days of back-to-back B2B meetings with global tourism operators to showcase Namibia as the ultimate travel destination. Over 10,000 exhibitors from more than 180 countries and regions were in attendance, with nearly 40,000 visitors gracing the halls on the first day alone.
However, the biggest highlight of FlyNamibia’s ITB experience was the launch of their new partnership with beloved Namibian artist and personality, EES. As a proud and larger-than-life personality, EES is an icon in Namibia and the perfect fit to become FlyNamibia Safari’s brand ambassador. Through this year-long partnership, FlyNamibia and EES aim to promote and share the wonders of Namibia as a holiday spot with the world.
Namibia is known as the most iconic and diverse safari destination in Africa, offering visitors endless natural beauty, rich cultures, and remarkable wildlife. With FlyNamibia Safari, tourists can easily access the best of Namibia’s top destinations, including Sossusvlei, Swakopmund, Twyfelfontein, Damaraland, Etosha National Park, and the magnificent Zambezi Region. FlyNamibia Safari operates a Reims F406 aircraft between these destinations, making it possible for tourists to depart directly to their preferred safari destination shortly after landing at Hosea Kutako International Airport, without unnecessary stopovers.
Through their partnership with EES, FlyNamibia aims to celebrate everything that makes Namibia special and to ensure that Namibians, their German core tourism market, and the rest of the world join in on the celebration. EES’s larger-than-life personality and love for Namibia make him the perfect fit to represent FlyNamibia Safari and showcase the country’s wonders. Together, FlyNamibia and EES look forward to a year of promoting Namibia as the ultimate travel destination to the world.
As Namibia transitions into a new chapter, we extend our deepest gratitude to outgoing President Nangolo Mbumba for his dedicated service during this time of change. Serving as Namibia’s president following the passing of the late Dr. Hage Geingob, President Mbumba has been a steady hand guiding the nation through a period of transition.
