SAA to sell nine A340s as part of restructuring effort
South African Airways has put more than half of its Airbus A340 fleet and a variety of spare parts up for sale, as part of efforts to restructure following the carrier’s decision last month to voluntarily enter business rescue proceedings. In a tender notice published on its website, SAA announces the sale of nine A340-300/600 aircraft, 15 aircraft engines – including CFM International CFM56s and Rolls-Royce Trent 500s – and four auxiliary power units (APUs).

SAA also operates five A330-300s, three A350-900s, 10 A320s, seven A319s and two Boeing 737-300s.<br/>
