South African Airways will be withdrawing its aircraft from the Durban-Cape Town route effective November 1. Instead it will operate the route through a new codeshare deal signed with its low-cost subsidiary, Mango.
“The opportunity to codeshare with SAA’s low-cost subsidiary, Mango will ensure a continued presence of SAA and Mango on the coastal route. SAA’s value proposition on this route remains intact with the only variation being the use of Mango’s aircraft,” says SAA’s CEO Siza Mzimela.
In addition, the SAA Voyager programme, the SAA Corporate Loyalty programme and other SAA value-added benefits will not be compromised or diminished by the codeshare agreement with Mango, says Mzimela.
The Voyager programme remains active allowing for accumulation of Voyager miles on the Durban-Cape Town coastal route including flight bookings on this route using Voyager miles.
SAA passengers will receive a meal voucher that adequately provides for a meal and drink on board the aircraft when travelling on the codeshare flight.
