JOHANNESBURG – South African Airways , the state-owned airline that was recently placed under business rescue has been named as one of the top-performing airlines globally for on-time performance by travel data and analytics company, Cirium.
According to a report released by Cirium on Tuesday, SAA was ranked fourth in the category for the Middle East and Africa mainline carriers, ahead of some of its major competitors, making SAA the leading African carrier on OTP. SAA acting chief executive Zuks Ramasia said according to the International Airlines Transport Association’s benchmark of OTP, an airline is on-time when it arrived within 15 minutes of the scheduled time of arrival or departs within 15 minutes of the scheduled departure time. “We are excited that most of the time we adhere to these deadlines.”“We are encouraged by this latest announcement about our performance.
It is a lie. I fly flysaa regularly and they are always late with departure, especially going overseas. Attitude of take it or leave it. Never apologizing.
There nothing wrong with SAA ive been in several domestic flight and is my preferred flight, all this stories are created to have a reason to loot this people are taking money.
Top for the biggest losses yes.
Even a dead dog has white teeth 🦷
We know
Malavi_Mapimele Bullshit stats
Being on time has nothing to do with the finances. Its operations.
You're bankrupt - cant imagine anything more risky than flying with a bankrupt airline - perhaps a little less corruption and incompetence moving forward?
MbuyiseniNdlozi 😂😂
MbuyiseniNdlozi Whypipo wont like this
MbuyiseniNdlozi For the amount of taxpayer's money we dumping into this airline - it would b insult to injury if they didn't make time We pay everything double n sometimes tripple over there - it has to b worth it at least
This is true though.... iv never experienced any delays with them
Those at the top are responsible for the mess the airline is in, those at the bottom are working hard
MbuyiseniNdlozi 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤨🤨🤨🤨🤨🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
It's obvious, there are no politicians involved in that space
MbuyiseniNdlozi Well at least their PR team isn't giving up..
MbuyiseniNdlozi If its one of the best why are some people in goverment so hellbent on trying to sell calling it a baggage
MbuyiseniNdlozi What's amazing is that the air craft never crashed
MbuyiseniNdlozi 😂😂😂 On time to bankruptcy
Mxm I don't buy this rented newspapers. SAA is bleeding money but got gold but when Myeni was there no accolades
Service excellence, operations always on point. I try fly SAA every time but it is so hard getting a seat. This is one of the best rated airlines. Emirates on the other hand... disaster! And I unfortunately almost always get booked with Emirates 😖
Its however costing the tax payer so much.
This just makes me sad. Employees giving their all while mismanagement prevails...
Benefits of bailouts
At our cost!
SAA is not a bad airline,the vibes are the problem .
FloydShivambu They want to grab SAA without energy/sacrifice/hard-work or anything to this effect!
Can at least Prasa and Eskom have trains n electricity on time... They get bailouts but still damage the economy and also contributing to job losses...
Surely the international standard must be low🤔
So you're advertising our not profitable airline to the highest bidder🤔
I would hope so with 31 people per flight on the payroll
Criteria please.
SAA operations are not that bad...i know they are busy so much that sometimes u don't get flights because they fully booked
SAA it's the one of the best in world
Is this sarcasm?
What about Profit merging?
If true shows that the people / staff are willing to work - but there must be massive corruption, someone must be siphoning off huge amounts of cash / massively overcharging for services etc etc What else can be the problem ?
I have never thought I can be sad and happy at the same time
The media propaganda painted someone who only sits on the board a handful of times annually as a problem, and we fell for it. Where is the problem kanti la
WhyAlwaysMoe_ That much is true.
FloydShivambu But ... 😯
FloydShivambu Excellent the elite arrive on time at the expense of the poor
This is true. They are always on time, but still can’t translate this into revenue though.
FloydShivambu Stop it maan ask mtata airport why its always late
GTFOH....seriously!?!?!
Great stuff
Hitler was Time Magazine man of the year 1938.
Who did the survey...The Iranians or the Chinese....because that crap is strong
But deduct the flights cancelled.
It's not even April's fools day.....
I've used SAA many times and I tend to agree with this. There's really nothing wrong with the actual operations at this airline as the service was excellent the last time I checked. What killed it are governance issues, including proper financial management.
This is a soe in SA ppl..nothing is what it seems..all cloak and dagger, smoke and mirrors
Who cares! Kill it!
Phrrrr no news here
Excluding us here in SA. They are a disaster using our tax money to impress the masses and capitalists of this world.
By whom? 😂😂😂
Means very little in the greater scheme of things.
President PresJGZuma legacy. Now, WMC agents want to sell it to the highest bidders. Thank you myeni_dudu for your leadership
Joanne00307605 Because they have no passengers

Even though it is riddled with massive corruption.
