SAA cuts back flight schedule to conserve cash
South African Airways has cancelled a number of domestic and international flights over the coming week, to preserve finances, just a day after insisting that operations to all destinations were continuing as normal. The carrier says that, as part of a “responsible strategy to conserve cash”, it is cancelling several domestic flights from Johannesburg to Cape Town and Durban between Jan 20-24, and is “working closely” with sister airline Mango to “reaccommodate passengers” on alternative services. SAA has also cancelled some international flights from Johannesburg to Munich between Jan 20-25. “These decisions are in line with SAA’s usual policy of reviewing flights and consolidating services with low demand,” says the airline, which is undergoing a restructuring programme. <br/>
