Value airline fastjet and Simbisa Brands Limited have announced a joint payment option channel through the latter's flagship Chicken Inn restaurants across Zimbabwe.
The new payment option allows fastjet customers to pay for a flight booking at any of the 72 Chicken Inn restaurants across Zimbabwe. After securing a fastjet booking on the airline's website, travel shop or via the call centre, a customer may select the pay later booking option.
