Lanseria International Airport.
The Chief Executive Officer of Lanseria International Airport, Rampa Rammopo, states that over 20% of their commercial passenger services are currently not operating, which will impact their bottom line, as FlySafair is the only airline operator at Lanseria.
This, as FlySafair’s pilot strike enters a second day with more flight cancellations.
On Monday, the airline company cancelled 26 flights due to the strike action by pilots over wage disputes.

The pilots reject the airline’s 5,7% wage increase offer, sticking to their demand of a 10,5% hike.
The standoff threatens to disrupt flights for up to two weeks, jeopardising passenger confidence.

We sincerely apologise for the disruption caused by the strike and are working hard to get things back on track while assisting all affected customers. pic.twitter.com/xbMIA4c5YZ
