SAA introduces Airbus A330 on London – Cape Town route

The swing to twins continues with South African Airways replacing its older generation A340s with brand new A330-200s on its non-stop London – Cape Town route. 

UK and Ireland Country Manager, Gary Kershaw, commented: “We are very proud to have this brand new aircraft operating the Cape Town route.  It is a massive improvement that I know our customers will really appreciate.  To have a consistent product on the UK routes is something we have been striving to achieve for some while.  The A330-200 is not only more fuel efficient which reduces our carbon footprint but offers greater service enhancements for our customers and the feedback to date has been excellent.”

All aircraft feature a two-class configuration: Business Class and Economy Class.

Business Class customers can get a full night’s sleep on the 180-degree fully flat-bed seats complete with full size pillow and a duvet.  In Economy Class new IFE (in flight entertainment) technology has been integrated into the seat structure allowing more space and comfort for passengers to stretch their legs in order to relax further and arrive in better shape.  A 2+4+2 configuration ensures that no-one is more than one seat from the aisle. www.flysaa.com
