South African Airways

South African Airways (SAA, IATA SA) is a South African airline centered on Johannesburg, with O. R. Tambo International Airport identified as its main hub. SAA is a Star Alliance member and runs its own frequent-flyer program, SAA Voyager. Its current network is best understood as a full-service passenger operation focused on Johannesburg links to domestic South African cities, regional and international points in Africa, and selected long-haul routes such as Perth and Sao Paulo, rather than a low-cost model. For travelers, the key considerations are Star Alliance connectivity and recognition, Voyager earning and redemption options across SAA and partners, and checking current route schedules and eligibility rules before choosing where to credit a flight.
