It seems that the Egyptian Ambassador to Zimbabwe needs to learn more about the geography of Africa, or about the basics of airline industry, or about both.
What did he mean exactly when he said that the air link would provide a direct link with east Africa?
Did he mean Cairo (Egypt) or Dar Es Salaam (Tanzania)?
Cairo is not in east Africa for sure. So, we can safely conclude that Dar Es Salaam is the destination located in east Africa.
It is true that EgyptAir flights stop in Dar Es Salaam before reaching Harare. However, EgyptAir did not say that it has traffic rights between Harare and Dar Es Salaam. That simply means that EgyptAir can not carry passengers between those two cities. Obviously, the re-launch of EgyptAir flights does not provide any link between Harare and east Africa.
Of course, we can run the same logical steps if he thought that Cairo is in east Africa.
