SAA denies reports that it will split into 3

South African Airways has released a statement denying reports that it will be splitting into 3 separate entities. A spokesperson said the airline’s CE, Vuyani Jarana, was misinterpreted by media, and was just talking about how the operating model at the company will be changed, rather than indicating that the business as a whole will face restructuring. “We are not looking at a situation of breaking up the airline,” he said. “SAA as an airline remains, but the manner in which it conducts business will be aimed at bringing in more business and create accountability in terms of operations,” he continued. News reports Monday morning had said that the airline will be splitting into 3 separate entities, responsible for handling their domestic, regional, and international flight routes. <br/>
