The Rise And Fall Of South African Airways

KINDLY SUBSCRIBE here 👉bit.ly/363b3hW
Plagued by debt and years of mismanagement, state-owned South African Airways (SAA) has been placed into business rescue - South Africa’s bankruptcy protection process - in a last-ditch attempt to save the national carrier.
South Africa’s business rescue process, which will shield SAA from the demands of its creditors while an independent advisor takes over, borrows from U.S., UK, Canadian and Australian law.
This video tracks the ins and outs of what led to near collapse of this airline

A business can only survive having so many ghost employees and management positions filled with the relatives of politicians.

[@eisbeinGermany]

yes agree, but the deeper problem is the corruption from inside the ANC cadres, selling off the food/maintenance contract to SWiss port, buying the contract for a small amount then selling it the next day for 10 times, selling the money-making routes to China and India to Air China for a kick back,

The end of an era started in around 1929. A great airline staffed and flown by South Africans, for South Africans and by South Africans! A powerful pioneer airline, flying South Africa into a prosperous future.

SAA was making money until ANC took of country, maybe for a few years after 1994 it did still make a profit, the biggest mistake was appointing ANC cadres as CEO, she sold the money-making flight to China and India off to Air China, for a kick back, i flew on SAA on the Munich Jan Smuts flight july 2019 and it was fully booked both ways, it will never come back, few people know when u lose your landing slot at an airport after not flying it for around a year it can take up to 10 years to regain it, so the SAA flights to EU are lost for ever, to USA also,

Very nice, thank you. Excellent information and well done video. Just as FYI: My fiend you forgot to mention unless I missed it, that during the leadership of the South African late president Nelson Mandela Andrew Coleman from US and former CEO of Delta Airlines was appointed the CEO of SAA. During that time Mr Coleman turned if my memory serves me right SAA to a profitable company.

It was once a proud and efficient airline. But, SAA now sadly going bankrupt. It was also considered to be one of the best airlines in the world. Boeing even got some of their customer needs for the aircraft from SAA, It was in the days of the orange tails. And, to think that orange tails returned to the South African skies, for a while unfortunately, with Mango Airways.

I hope South Africa can have two airlines, one run by white South Africans and one run by black South Africans. The blacks can drive their airline to the ground, but white South Africans deserve a better airline and transport means, like Qantas.

[@tsebomoloi3410]

Nope we need competent black non govermental organisations to run the airline.. If u want a white airline go to KLM and british airways
