South African Airways intends to open routes from Johannesburg to Lubumbashi and Dar es Salaam in November, according to a media release issued on September 10.

The airline also reports steady, sustainable growth three years after returning to the skies.

Interim CEO, Professor John Lamola , said that between August 2022 and August 2024 the airlines fleet grew to 16 aircraft from six at the restart flying 15 routes from the initial six and reported 400 growth in passenger revenue during that period.

To date, we have reopened 11 outstations, including Mauritius, Perth in Australia, and So Paulo in Brazil. Post-COVID, our employment offering has expanded from 500 to around 1200 staff, including 140 pilots, said Lamola.

Sustainable growth

The statement says the carrier has experienced steady revenue growth since restarting operations in September 2021, albeit from a low base as the aviation industry was emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic.
