Bergie, no, I do not fly for SAA nor did I apply but certainly hold no grudge or bad sentiment towards the airline. Private suits me just fine at this point in time thank you very much.
As for my post, it is just my opinion and some information I recall from a long time ago when a family member was an high ranking official in the Transport ministry. But as was said previously, if the shoe fits.... I would love to see SAA financials in the black and making good profit year on year. It is just my idea of what a coarse of action could be to get the figures back on track.
But this again, is just my opinion.
