Airlink will use a new aircraft to service its Cape Town-Maun, and Cape Town-Victoria Falls routes, which will provide increased capacity and the introduction of business class.

Previously, the routes were operated by a 37-seat Embraer ERJ135. Airlink will now use an AvroRJ regional jet, with 83 seats. The change will come into effect on June 4 for the Cape Town-Maun service, and July 2 for the Cape Town-Victoria Falls service.
