Flights to Harare.
We have flights booked with Ethiopian, LHR to HRE, later this year. I have just heard that both Qatar and Emirates are discontinuing their flights to Harare, my concern is that this may be related to safety issues?

Safety issues in what sense? I suspect the bigger challenge is the desperate state of the Zim economy.

My concern is in a way related to the economic situation, but more specifically to the maintenance of safety standards for aircraft flying into Harare.

I haven't heard or read anything about EK or QR pulling out. EK increased frequency not too long ago. If they are pulling out, I suspect it would be over the difficulties in repatriating ticket sales. HRE isn't too bad IMO and those two airlines fly to other airports which are far less safe.

You heard wrong in that case.
