Air Tanzania reverses Moscow flight suspension, resumes service Sept. 7
Air Tanzania has reversed its decision to suspend flights between Dar es Salaam and Moscow, announcing that scheduled service will resume on Sept. 7, just hours after the carrier said it would temporarily halt the route starting Sept. 4, Reuters reported.
Air Tanzania has reinstated flights between Dar es Salaam and Moscow, set to resume operations on September 7, according to Reuters. The airline made the decision just hours after initially announcing the suspension of the route effective September 4. Air Tanzania cited a "routine risk assessment of the operating environment along the route" as the reason for resuming service, though the specifics of what prompted the reversal were not disclosed.
The initial suspension came after a previous risk assessment, with the airline prioritizing safety over commercial concerns and offering affected passengers refunds or free rebooking. Russian authorities have faced repeated disruptions and temporary closures at Moscow airports due to Ukrainian drone attacks in recent days. Air Tanzania did not provide any additional details on why it decided to reverse the suspension.
