I see 1 Time will drop the 6 x per week George route soon and start a 3 time per week flight to Zambia with it's "partner" 1 Time Zambia using a DC 9.

Good luck oke's :ok:

Where abouts will 1 time be going? I know they're pulling out of George and kulula out of East London. Apparently some agreement between the two carriers has been made where 1 Time will concentrate on E.L. and BA/kulula on George!!!

From AfricanFlyer :

1time, South Africa’s other low fare airline, announced that it is to introduce service between Johannesburg and Lusaka effective February 24. This service, to be operated by its franchise, 1time Zambia, will operate the flights on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays using a DC9.

The airline also announced that it will be terminating its existing 6x per week service between Johannesburg and George, citing the seasonality of the route, and intends to concentrate on Port Elizabeth and East London.

I wonder how the competition board will view that if it's true!!

hardly think the competition board will take notice- if they do then Comair will turn "states evidence" and grass on 1Time :}
