THE Zimbabwe Parks and Wildlife Management Authority (Zimparks) has entered into a partnership with a local helicopter flights company to offer flight services for tourists to view both game and the majestic Victoria Falls.

MJ Air is a wholly indigenous company that operates from Kazungula aerodrome on the outskirts of Victoria Falls, from where the activities will be taking place.

For Zimparks the partnership is about creating synergies and getting the much-needed revenue, which the wildlife authority desperately needs for its operations.

Environment, Climate, Tourism and Hospitality Industry Minister Nqobizitha Mangaliso Ndlovu who officiated at the launch of the partnership in Victoria Falls said such business partnerships form part of the enablers to achieve Vision 2030.

He challenged locals to seek such partnerships and to embrace domestic tourism.
