South African Airways (SAA) remains steadfast in supporting our valued customers as negotiations between SAA and the South African Airways Pilots' Association (SAAPA) continue. The airline’s management said this in a statement.
"We understand that disrupted travel plans can be frustrating, and SAA apologises for all the inconvenience caused.
We deeply appreciate customer’s patience, understanding, and support. Our dedicated SAA team is working diligently to assist customers in reaching their destinations amid the ongoing pilot strike."
Despite the challenges, on Day 1 of the strike, SAA successfully operated 39 out of 47 planned flights to Cape Town, Durban, Gqeberha, Mauritius, and Windhoek. This represents 51% of the planned flights, including 66% of domestic, 30% of regional, and 33% of international routes.
Intercontinental routes, such as Perth and São Paulo, remain a top priority for SAA management. Plans for resuming flights to Perth are being finalized, with potential operations set for the upcoming weekend.
"We are in constant communication with our customers, assisting with re-accommodation and coordinating with our codeshare and Star Alliance partners to facilitate rebooking and travel arrangements. Additionally, a significant number of passengers are being accommodated in hotels while alternative travel plans are being arranged."

Wow! Stunning! Hilton seems to be taking Africa by storm. Just a couple of years back, they opened the first ever in Eswatini.
Wonderful event and topics discussed, hopefully we see the manifestations in our African airline businesses in the nearest future. Kudos to you all.
