Fact remains......SAA is an embarrassment to the airline industry as a whole. Dysfunctional from top to bottom and left to right.
All very well aspiring to fly for SAA as a pilot but how does it sit with you as an individual knowing full well that you're purportedly working for an entity that's hell bent on driving all competition into liquidation + continuously turning to the state's treasure trove to bail it out. A 20 year turn around program? No that's accountability for you! MBA students must love the material being spewed out by SAA to use for dissertations.
SAA = QE at its finest, the US's Federal Reserve bank should follow SAA's example
