		I travel Air Botswana frequently for trips around the country (as there is no other carrier) and what I cannot understand is the extremly high cost for tickets.
		Air Botswana has an important role in representing this rapidly developing country- yes they must update their aircraft but they have a priceless asset - their staff.
		I travel frequently between between Botswana and South Africa and my preferred carrier is always South African Express as their Dash-8's appear extremely well maintained, clean and a cabin crew who clearly have superior training; especially with respect to safety.
