Air Botswana cabins and aircraft

Route data · Jul 2026

Source: Originfacts route-network dataset, built from TravelPayouts route data (updated 2026-07). Not verified by hand.

Cabin names and seat details are not yet verified for Air Botswana. What the route dataset does record is which aircraft types have appeared on its routes:

  • Aerospatiale/Alenia ATR 42-500
  • Aerospatiale/Alenia ATR 72
  • British Aerospace BAe 146
  • Embraer E190

Seat pitch is a property of the aircraft cabin rather than of the airline, so a single figure for this carrier’s legroom would be misleading. Pitch publishes per aircraft type once each figure is verified.

A record of what has flown, not a current fleet

The route dataset accumulates equipment over time and is not a fleet register: it can name types Air Botswana has retired, miss recent additions, and it covers only flights sold under BP. Seat pitch and cabin configuration are not verified for this carrier.

If your Air Botswana flight is delayed or cancelled

Not yet verified

Which delay and cancellation regime applies depends on where each flight departs. The mapping has not been verified for this carrier yet.

Still to check: Care, Rebooking and refunds, Compensation.

Sources and verification

Baggage, fare, check-in, disruption and contact figures are published only when they are read from Air Botswana’s own pages or a named regulator, and each one shows the page and the date it was checked. Where sources disagree we show both and publish neither. Route and destination figures come from the Originfacts route dataset and show its date instead; they are not verified by hand.
