Dawie Pretorius, team leader at South African Airways Group sales, died on Tuesday January 26. Dawie was well known in the travel trade for dealing specifically in the sports side of groups – sport tours and the national rugby and cricket teams. Straight from military service he joined SAA in Braamfontein and had 31 years of service with the airline. Sport was Dawie’s passion and he will be sorely missed by his family, friends, colleagues and co-workers. He is survived by his wife, Linda -- who is also in the travel industry – son Dwayne and daughter Dominique.
