South Africa: South African Airways (SAA) has suspended all operations!

South Africa's flag carrier, South African Airways (SAA), has suspended all operations with immediate effect on 29 September 2020. The airline's Business Rescue Practitioners (BRP) decided to put the national carrier under "care and maintenance" until funding for a restructuring plan could be found. The suspension of operations may be lifted if the Government of South Africa comes through funds it has promised. According to the airline, all scheduled cargo and repatriation flights will be undertaken but no new ones will be accepted during the suspension. SAA is officially in business rescue since December 2019 after a decade of financial losses. We'll keep you posted!
