Hwange National Park Airport (IATA: HWN, ICAO: FVWN) is an airport in Zimbabwe that serves the tourist industry around the Hwange National Park, in the northwest of the country. It is located 35 NM Southeast of Hwange Town. The airport is used by private charter and shuttle air services. Due to economic constraints, and the economic problems of Air Zimbabwe which formerly served the airport, the airport was neglected for a number of years,[2] and scheduled services were limited. However, Fastjet commenced scheduled services in April 2023.
