BUSINESS TECH
South African Airways has announced that its flights to Perth, Australia are returning.
The first flight will take place on 28 April 2024, with bookings now open.
“Besides the global interconnectivity potential of this route, Perth has long been a favoured destination for South African and Australian travellers, with approximately 80% of our target market being visiting family and friends,” CEO of SAA, John Lamola, said.
“The recommencement of the route provides an easier and direct passage for both leisure and business travellers, promoting trade and cultural exchange between South Africa and Australia”.
Flights will depart OR Tambo International Airport three times a week on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays at 20h55 and arrive at Perth International Airport the following day at 12h20.
Flights from Perth are scheduled three times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 14h40, arriving the same day at 19h35 in Johannesburg.
SAA will operate an Airbus A340 – 300, with a total seat capacity of 253 (38 business class seats and 215 economy seats), for the launch phase of the route.
