Said it before....

Said it before.... time for SAA to stop wasting tax payers bucks. We all know what the trouble with SAA is, everybody top to bottom, is over paid and under worked.

Until the cost structure is addressed, it doesn’t have a chance. And I am afraid that is flight deck include. I am happy for the guys to earn mega bucks, as long as it’s not my tax money paying for it.

If the market forces were allowed to play themselves out, we would have a healthier airline industry with more jobs and better pay for all.

This must be the only country in the world with three (yes, 3) state owned loss making airlines.

Yet most of SA lives in abject poverty. A strange world we live in. Cut the purse strings and let them sink or swim. There will be some short term pain, but all will be better off after.
