South African Airways announces Flight Schedule as part of Recovery Plans during suspension of SA Express

25 May 2022

South African Airways (SAA) has announced a flight schedule update as part of the recovery plans to bring replacement capacity with partner airlines to support South African Express passengers. This comes after the suspension of SA Express operations by the South African Civil Aviation Authority (SACAA) on Thursday 24 May 2018.

“Our priority remains customer assistance in the best way possible in order to minimise the inconvenience caused by the suspension of SA Express services,” said SAA Spokesperson, Tlali Tlali.
