While international and some regional flights are operating, an ongoing wage-related strike has forced the airline to cancel domestic flights - incurring significant losses.
Copies of internal correspondence purportedly from acting CEO Zuks Ramasia were shared on social media, telling staff the airline would “not be in a position to fulfil salary obligations to employees on the scheduled payment dates".
It went on to advise: “In the interim, you are advised to make arrangements with your financial service provider in respect of your scheduled monthly debit orders.”
“The company has undertaken to keep employees updated on this matter and will advise staff on the dates for payment of November salaries,” Tlali told BusinessLIVE.
