South African Airways (SAA) is adding additional frequencies to its network, which will substantially increase air services on some of its key African routes.

“The additional capacity injection answers the commercial mandate of SAA’s Long-Term Turnaround Strategy, and is in response to positive market growth,” the airline said on Tuesday.

Effective December 1, SAA increased frequencies between Johannesburg and Maputo by 24%, from 17 to 21 weekly frequencies, while frequencies between Johannesburg and Harare were increased from 18 to 19 every week.

From December 4, frequencies between Johannesburg and Kinshasa, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, would increase from 6 to 7 a week, while frequencies between Johannesburg and Mauritius would increase from 9 to 10 a week.

“The strengthening of these routes comes in the wake of positive load factors and increased traffic between the countries,” said SAA acting CEO Nico Bezuidenhout.
