FlySafair have been awarded the title of Best Airline Africa and Indian Ocean in the 2019 TripAdvisor Travellers’ Choice™ awards for Airlines, for the second year in a row. Fulfilling their mission of being ‘South Africa’s favourite airline.’
The budget airline was established in 2014, when it was started by it’s long-running parent company Safair. Safair has been around for 50 years providing specialist airlift services for cargo to obscure parts of the world.
