Hunting charter flights built around your safari—not airline schedules.
Firearms, specialised luggage, remote airstrips, multiple destinations and carefully timed itineraries all need to come together. African Air removes that complexity.
We coordinate the aircraft, routing, applicable requirements and schedule—so if your plans change, one call is all it takes.
Your safari begins sooner.
A hunting safari often begins long before arriving at camp.
Commercial travel can mean multiple connections, strict baggage restrictions, limited firearm handling, long road transfers and rigid schedules. Private charter removes many of those challenges.

Build easier multi-country itineraries
Four hunters needed to reach a remote Karoo concession at short notice. African Air coordinated a private charter from Cape Town to Beaufort West, with rifles and ammunition travelling in accordance with required procedures and the outfitter waiting on arrival.
Private charter often provides a far simpler experience than scheduled airlines, provided all applicable firearm laws and regulations are followed.
The same person plans your journey and stays with it. For an American agency’s six-client Karoo safari, African Air coordinated the Cape Town–Graaff-Reinet charter, private departure and arrival lounges, compliant rifle handling and the outfitter transfer directly to the concession.
Hunting destinations are rarely near major airports. Where suitable infrastructure exists, private charter creates access far beyond scheduled airline services. Aircraft selection always considers runway conditions, distance, passengers and luggage.
Seven hunters. Seven accompanying family members. One coordinated journey.
A group of fourteen travelled from Cape Town to a private Kalahari hunting lodge. African Air coordinated a direct charter to the nearby airstrip. The hunters pursued gemsbuck while non-hunters enjoyed the lodge, pool and wilderness—then everyone reunited each evening.
Rather than asking you to choose an aircraft, African Air recommends the aircraft best suited to the journey.
Tell us the hunters, regions, rifles, equipment and dates. We will plan the most practical aviation solution.
Private concession, remote reserve or multiple destinations across Africa—we will design the charter around your itinerary, equipment and hunting party.
