Mango airlines

Mango airlines, the 3rd low-cost airline in South Africa, (after Kalula and 1Time), launched on Tuesday 31st of October. Mango airlines is a subsidiary of SAA.

Their initial offering of one-way airline ticket from Joburg to Cape Town is selling at R169. It seems that you cannot get that price if you are traveling from Cape Town, which is pretty strange. But it does seem that the market for low-cost airline tickets is hotting up. These type of airlines have been in operation in Europe for ages, for example, RyanAir, and with the 2010 World Cup coming to South Africa, we definitely need to jack up our transport systems.

The website doesn’t seem to be handling the load, as could be expected. CEO of mango airline says that 14 000 reservations were confirmed by 18:00 on the first day of trading.

Visit the mango airlines website at: http://www.flymango.co.za
Or if that doesn’t work, call the mango airlines call centre at: 0861 162642

Just a few links to some stories on mango airlines:

Update: Seems that Kalula and 1Time are also going to be playing ball during Mango airlines launch. Kalula flights during November will range from R168 to R248, and 1Time, between R165 and R549 for January. I’m hoping this exact same thing will happen when Neotel officially launches to the public!

Update 2: More info on Mango Airlines website and Mango airlines tickets for those that are interested.
