United Airlines announces nonstop Johannesburg-New York service

US carrier United Airlines has announced that it will initiate a new, nonstop, service between Newark Liberty International Airport in the US state of New Jersey and Johannesburg’s OR Tambo International Airport. Newark is one of the three airports that serve New York City and is a hub for United’s international and domestic operations.  The new service, which is subject to government approval, will start early next year (during the northern hemisphere spring). United already operates a seasonal service (three times a week) between Newark and Cape Town International Airport. With the new route, the airline will operate more nonstop services between the US and South Africa than any other American carrier.
