“We are delighted to announce São Paulo as our first international destination since the airline successfully emerged from an intense corporate rescue process. It also marks the return of our long-haul service from Cape Town,” said the airline’s interim CEO, John Lamola.
“Our decision to relaunch long-haul services with São Paulo was made based on a rigorous analysis of the viability of the route,” Lamola added.
