SAA resumed trips on the popular Gauteng-KZN route on Friday morning.


The public carrier slowly began taking to the skies again last year after Takatso Consortium, a private group, secured a majority stake in the airline.


This after it emerged from a 17-month business rescue, with hundreds of jobs slashed.


Management's said at a media briefing earlier today that SA Airways remains committed to local flights, adding it'll look at embarking on international journeys once again when global markets start normalising.
