An Air Zimbabwe in-flight meal featuring sadza, beef stew and greens has divided opinion online, with the airline acknowledging concerns about presentation but defending its traditional menu option.

Air Zimbabwe has attributed the first cancellation of its recently relaunched Harare-London service to operational reasons and announced a revised schedule for affected passengers.

Air Zimbabwe has relaunched direct flights between Harare and London Gatwick for the first time since 2012, with three weekly services expected to strengthen tourism, business and diaspora travel between Zimbabwe and the United Kingdom.
