Mango experiencing 'minor delays' due to strike
Updated | By Sibahle Motha
Low cost airline Mango says it is only experiencing minor flight delays amid the strike action by its pilots.
Mango spokesperson Sergio dos Santos says although there are some delays, people are still reaching their destinations.
"Passengers are being re-accommodated. We are only seeing minor delays on flights but people are reaching their destinations and that is exactly what they have bought their tickets for."

Mango has roped in the services of South African Airlines and other local airlines to assist.
"South African Airways and other flights operating in the same route to Mango have also been roped in," says dos Santos.
The strike follows a deadlock in wage negotiations between Mango and trade union Solidarity.
Mango is offering a 6% wage increase, while Solidarity is demanding a 8.5%.
