Airlink's Richards Bay Flights Resume Next Month
19 August 2022, Johannesburg – Airlink, Southern Africa’s premier airline will resume scheduled services between Johannesburg and Richards Bay from 19 September 2022.

It’s viability and development depend on a fully-functioning and efficient transportation system, with air connectivity playing a key role in driving business and investment in the coal-terminus town and the industries it hosts. We are ready to welcome Richards Bay customers back onboard our flights and help reignite growth and economic activity in the area,” explained Airlink CEO and Managing Director, Rodger Foster.
