SAA is adjusting its flight schedules
South African Airways (SAA) has announced that it is adjusting its flight schedules to accommodate passenger requirements.
The airline will remove from the schedule its daily return service OR Tambo International Airport (JNB) in Johannesburg and Maputo International Airport (MPM) in Maputo in Mozambique. The decision is effective from 01 December 2021, and passengers holding tickets will be re-accommodated on codeshare flights operated by LAM - Mozambique Airlines.
Other adjustments being made for the December ’21 and January ’22 holiday season, are due to the expected slow demand on traditionally non-travel days, as customers spend their time with families and friends.
Return flights to Accra in Ghana have been adjusted and will not operate on 25 December 2021 and 01 January 2022. Kinshasa, DR Congo flights have been adjusted and will not operate on 24 December 2021 and 31 December 2021. All Passengers will be re-accommodated on the next available SAA flights.
South African Airways (SAA) had operated 4 days a week to Lusaka in Zambia since September to 30 November 2021. The airline had scheduled additional frequencies to fly 7 days a week from December 2021, however further adjustments was made to the schedule to operate 5 days a week from 01 December 2021. Affected passengers will be re-accommodated on the next available SAA flights.
