Natural Selection to launch Namibia flight circuit
Natural Selection has announced a new daily scheduled flying circuit across Namibia starting 1 March 2026, linking all its camps via coordinated routes operated with Wilderness Air, Desert Air and FlyNamibia. The network replaces long road transfers and ad hoc charters, offering fixed timetables, competitive seat rates and simplified booking direct with the airlines or through Natural Selection – improving reliability and access for trade and travellers.
To support the circuit, new airstrips will open, including Sima Airstrip launching with Hoanib Elephant Camp in May 2026, around 20 minutes from the camp and just over an hour from Hoanib Valley Camp. Guests will also have daily access to Westies Airstrip for Shipwreck Lodge, while existing options include Geluk or Keerweder for Kwessi Dunes, Orutjandja for Hoanib Valley and Ongava for the Etosha Heights properties. Nkasa Linyanti is not included and is due to open in May 2026, with access details to follow.
