Frequent Flyer Programme

The airline doesn't have a frequent flyer programme that is currently active. It was looking to launch a programme in 2020. However, plans were put on hold due to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic.

It's unknown at this time whether FlyNamibia will resume plans to launch a programme. They didn't mention anything about a new frequent flyer programme when they rebranded in 2021.

Airline Alliance

FlyNamibia isn't a member of any airline alliance. However, it does increase its connectivity through a codeshare/interline agreement with FlyNamibia. This allows you to book connecting flights on both carriers under the same itinerary, without having to worry about missed connections.

Trustpilot 5-star

This was my first booking and I used Alternative Airlines twice on this trip. I must say by far the best online booking experience ever.
