Egypt Air will return to the Harare route after pulling out in September citing viability challenges between Dar es Salaam and Harare.
Egypt's Ambassador to Zimbabwe Baseem Khalil revealed that Egypt Air will make a rebound in November.
The airline, which used to fly three times a week between Cairo and Harare, initially suspended flights saying the route was not lucrative enough as the airline was not allowed to carry passengers between Dar es Salaam and Harare.
The Egyptian ambassador also said the North African country will for the first time take part in the 2014 edition of the Sanganai/Hlanganani tourism expo which opens on Thursday.
Egypt is also endowed with vast tourism infrastructure and Cairo hopes to capitalise at the expo to lure tourists.
