SIKHUPHE: Eswatini Air, the newly launched and only air-link in the country, has changed it’s schedule amid mechanical faults identified in the aircraft.
As a result, Xavier Masule, the Royal Eswatini National Airways Corporation(RENAC) Commercial Director has released a statement, informing the Nation regarding the change of the schedule.
“Eswatini Air wishes to advise all esteemed stakeholders and the traveling public that we have effected changes to our weekly operating schedule. The changes are necessitated by delayed release from maintenance of one of our aircraft.The maintenance event currently underway uncovered a component that needs replacement, and due to supply chain constraints we are experiencing delays in receiving it from suppliers,”reads the statement in part.
Eswatini Air was launched on or around 26th March 2023, and there were concerns that the aircrafts purchased by government for the Royal Eswatini National Airways(RENAC) were old models, and/or might be a huge risk for travelers.
Eswatini Air changes schedule as aircraft develops mechanical faults less than six(6) months of operation.
