SAA reveals its hoped-for near-term route expansion

State-owned national flag-carrier South African Airways (SAA), which resumed commercial operations in late September last year, is hoping to relaunch two intercontinental routes before the end of this month, respected commercial aviation news website “ch-aviation” has reported. SAA also hoped to expand its domestic network in the near future. The source for the information was a Travel News Weekly webcast interview with SAA interim COO Tebogo Tsimane.  The intercontinental routes to be activated before the end of this financial year (which terminated on March 31) are to São Paulo Guarulhos International Airport in Brazil and to Perth International Airport in Australia. They will be operated using the carrier’s leased Airbus A330-300 widebody airliner.
