Three major South African cities covered by the agreement
Emirates airline and FlySafair today announced an interline agreement, opening up connections for customers to selected routes on FlySafair’s network in South Africa.
Through the arrangement, Emirates and FlySafair plan to offer the ease of single-ticket travel and through tagging of baggage for travellers transferring from Emirates’ three gateways – Johannesburg, Cape Town, and Durban to FlySafair domestic points in South Africa, such as Port Elizabeth, East London and George.
“FlySafair’s network complements our South African presence, providing an array of connections for our customers, which makes this a natural partnership,” commented Badr Abbas, Senior Vice President-Commercial Operations, Africa.
“We are happy to report that there has been a slow and steady uptick in the volumes of flights we are selling through our connection agreements like that with Emirates,” remarked Kirby Gordon, Chief Marketing Officer, FlySafair.
