My husband and I would like to say a big thank you to Jenny. She helped us get the best deal for our flight to Zimbabwe. Helpful and supportive throughout. She had to stay a bit longer at the office to ensure our flights were safely secured. I'd recommend her services 👍🏾
I bought a ticket to my country Zimbabwe which I am only travelling for 10 hrs. I used to travel for more than 24 hrs if I buy a cheap ticket but Jenny was a star to me thank you so much Jenny.

This page is for anyone in the UK working out how to get to Bulawayo, whether you are going home to family or travelling for another reason. Bulawayo's airport is Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo International Airport, code BUQ. The Airports Company of Zimbabwe, which operates it, says it was established as Bulawayo Airport in 1959 and later renamed. Each fact below comes from a named airline, airport or government page, and the sources section at the end gives the dates we read them. Where we could not read a page, we say so instead of guessing.
Ethiopian Airlines lists Bulawayo as a destination on its international network page and has a fare page for Addis Ababa to Bulawayo. Its UK website also has fare pages for London Heathrow to Bulawayo and for Manchester to Bulawayo. A fare page is not a promise of a flight on your dates, and the pages we read name no hub, stops, schedule or journey time, so ask us what is available.
Air Zimbabwe lists Bulawayo on its domestic schedule from Harare. Its schedule page has two rows that include Bulawayo: Harare/Bulawayo/Victoria Falls on Friday, and Harare/Victoria Falls/Bulawayo on Sunday. The page gives days only, with no times, flight numbers or journey time, and it does not say whether each row is a separate flight or one multi-stop rotation. For that reason we do not state how often a flight serves Bulawayo from Harare, so ask us about your dates. Air Zimbabwe's pages present these domestic sectors as part of its own network and name no other operator for them.
We name only airlines whose own pages we could read. If another airline is on your list, message us and we will check it for your dates.
Air Zimbabwe also lists a London Gatwick to Harare service, which our Air Zimbabwe London to Harare page covers. We do not state that this service connects with a Bulawayo flight, so ask us whether the two can be ticketed together on your dates. The operating-carrier notice under the airlines table relates to that London route, which Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas operates on Air Zimbabwe's behalf. It does not describe the domestic sectors above.
Our guide to flights to Bulawayo and Victoria Falls from the UK compares how people reach both places together, so this page does not repeat it. For Zimbabwe's capital, see Flights to Harare from the UK.

Ethiopian Airlines' UK website has fare pages for London Heathrow to Bulawayo and for Manchester to Bulawayo. If you live somewhere else, tell us your nearest airport and we will check the options.
Air Zimbabwe lists a domestic allowance of 1 bag at 20 kg for Bulawayo. For its international flights, Air Zimbabwe lists 2 pieces at 23 kg each in Economy and 3 pieces at 23 kg each in Business, with no single piece over 32 kg. The domestic figure applies to a domestic flight on its own, and a through ticket takes the allowance printed on that ticket. If you are carrying gifts or extra bags, tell us how many before you choose a fare and we will compare allowances for you. Other airlines publish allowances by route and fare, so we confirm yours with your quote.
Entry rules depend on your passport and can change, so we link to the official page instead of repeating them. Read the GOV.UK entry requirements for Zimbabwe before you book.

I had a great experience with Travel Orbit from start to finish. Their team was professional, responsive, and made the entire booking process smooth and stress-free. They were patient in answering all my questions and ensured I got the best option for my travel needs. The customer service was excellent, and everything was handled efficiently. I would definitely recommend Travel Orbit to anyone looking for reliable travel services, and I'll be using them again for my future trips.
One of the best travel company to deal with. Daisy was fantastic from enquiry till the deal was concluded. Travel Orbit guys are the real deal, great customer service, the guys understand the small print of the travel world. I would recommend them to anyone and value for money is garaunteed.to Thank you guys.
I kept getting through to AI customer services of the other popular travel companies just to allow me book unaccompanied flight for my 16 year old. But I got to speak to a real being here who assisted me till the point where BA's website confirmed the flight for my 16 year old to travel unaccompanied. Thank you
