Wake up in Johannesburg

Perth travellers can take advantage of South African Airways’ (SAA) overnight flights to arrive at their destination or business meeting the next day, with planes landing in Johannesburg first thing in the morning. SAA also has the most direct and fastest routes to many popular destinations in southern and east Africa, with onward connections available from Johannesburg to 54 destinations in Africa.

The airline offers an above average Economy class seat pitch of 33.5 inches, while in Business class travellers can lie fully flat and curl up with their doona on SAA’S flatbed seating.

Tim Clyde-smith, Country Manager for South African Airways, Australasia said “This bodes well for travellers on SAA’S daily overnight flight from Perth to Johannesburg – connecting seamlessly from cities on the east coast of Australia and from New Zealand with our codeshare partners, Virgin Australia and Air New Zealand, respectively.

“Passengers start their journey the minute they board our flight when they stretch out, relax and enjoy the warm African hospitality before landing in Johannesburg early in the morning with plenty of time for onward connections in Africa.”
