I have only used this airline for an internal flight from Johannesburg to Cape Town. I flew in business. Our flight was 30 min late on the way back, other than this, I am quite please with the level of service on board, a very good choice of food, surely not common on European flights. Check in was fast. We got our luggage pretty soon at both end of the journey too andthe lounge in Jburg has free Internet access. Clearly in South Africa they represent the best option for business flights. I hear that their London Jburg flight is also good, but since I get plenty of miles with BA, I would probably use BA again to go ...

The last time I went on a South African Airways plane was Christmas 2007. Starting from the beginning, the person that i rang to book the tickets was lovely a very nice South African accent, she was very helpful and helped me with the best tickets for the days I wanted.

Express Review on South African Airways

South African Airways! Hmmmm....not the best service I have had ever I have to say (and I'm a 21 year old student!!) But anyway...

I flew in May from london to J'berg, then a short flight from J'berg to Livingstone, and later in May from Cape town to London. The one from j'berg to livingstone was great, but the long ones...well!

The plane going out was delayed on the tarmac for well over an hour, and I had a connection, so only just made it, but hey!

The food wasn't great and the LEG ROOM! It was ridiculous! Only travel long haul if you are SHORT!!!!

There was neveranyone around, and the air con dried out my throat so much during the night, I felt sick, but no one was there to give out water for over 2 hours.

Ok for a cheap flight!
