I don't know whether this will be considered the correct forum by the mods... but here goes...

Totally Random Question:

Has anyone any idea what the average ticket price would have been for a passenger to travel from London Heathrow to Johannesburg using South African Airways in September 1989? (Google turns up nothing)

The reason I ask is that a friend of a friend needs to settle a very old unpaid debt!

If anyone can be of any help it would be much appreciated :ok:

In November 1989 I flew SAA JNB - FRA and the return ticket price was R2100. It was a "Youth Fare".

Good luck. Hope you get your bucks!! ;)

Surely if its old debt he must pay him what a ticket cost today. So the poor guy can get the same return in value. :8

Most unsettled claims should be stale after 3 years...
Whoever owes someone for a ticket bought in 1989, should consider returning the favour in other ways than present day currency!

Thanks for the reply Lazy Pilot... helped give me a rough idea :ok:

True true Razorback... this was more of a 'Gentlemens Agreement' rather than a claim... you give someone your word etc etc... you keep to it :)
