  1. Meanwhile we helped kill our own. Can anyone please revive something similar to former Zambia Airways, a National Airline for Zambia?

  2. Meanwhile we helped kill our own. Can anyone please revive something similar to former Zambia Airways, a National Airline for Zambia? Sorry, above posted by CK.

  3. What Zambia has to show are two or so old Zambian Airways aircraft that shuttle between Jo’burg, Lusaka and Ndola and are ever delayed! Up SAA!

  4. Brother Zed lacks the political will for such an investment. SAA will continue to profit at the expense of Zed because our leaders/govt dont see the real benefit of a national airline. What a shame….

  5. Sometimes i even wonder whether they are other countries in Africa worth talking off.
    Therefore, it is impractical to comapre RSA economy and industry to none and jeopardised industries in Africa.
    SAA is the only airline in Africa worth talking, it’s like comapring it to none.

  6. Good attorney information. Kudos to you for posting this. I will return for more
