New Nonstop Round-Trip Service to South Africa

New Nonstop Round-Trip Service to South Africa

South African Airways now offers nonstop service, in both directions, between New York (JFK) Airport and Johannesburg, South Africa, offering some of the fastest and most convenient service from the Big Apple to the Big Five.

Onboard our new nonstop flights, SAA’s Premium Business Class customers will enjoy the comfort of our fully-flat 180° seat, with extra large pillow and thick duvet for a good nights sleep, on-demand audio and visual entertainment with an extensive menu of programming, gourmet meals and award-winning South African wines.

There no shortage of comfort for Economy Class customers either, with SAA’s industry-leading legroom of up to 34” inches at every seat. That is 2”-3” inches more legroom in Economy Class than most other carriers to Africa. In addition to more space, our Economy Class offers audio and video on demand programming at every seat, featuring an extensive selection of blockbuster movies, short subject programming, music and games. Economy Class customers enjoy a selection of freshly prepared meals, complimentary beverage & bar service, including some of South African’s finest wines, and an amenity kit to refresh with during flight.

Convenient connections to/from SAA flights at New York (JFK) are available from over 60 cities throughout the U.S. and Caribbean that are served by our code-share partners United Airlines and JetBlue Airways, as well as our interline partners American Airlines and Virgin America. For more information on SAA’s schedules from the U.S. to/from and throughout Africa, consult your GDS or visit www.flysaa.com.

The Most Spots in Southern Africa

	South African Airways can take your clients to more spots in Southern Africa than any other airline. Together, South African Airways and our regional partners, South African Airways Express and South African Airlink offer service to over 40 destinations throughout Southern Africa. Our daily flights that serve the U.S. offer convenient same-day connections via our JNB hub to popular business and leisure destinations throughout Southern Africa, including Cape Town, Durban, Windhoek, Livingstone, Victoria Falls and Lusaka.
No other airline compares to having the extensive regional network throughout sub-Saharan Africa equal in scope to that of South African Airways. This means greater convenience, with through check-in and baggage handling, affordable fares and a wider choice of flights for your clients traveling to, from and within the African continent when they fly SAA!
