Mthatha airport a no-go

TRAVELLERS to Mthatha

are faced with significant

challenges, as flights to the

Eastern Cape town have been

halted.

Airlink and SA Express have

suspended operations to

Mthatha, following the South

African Civil Aviation Authority’s

downgrading of the airport due

to safety concerns.

For the time being, travellers

to and from Mthatha will

have to fly to East London

and hire a car to drive three

hours on hazardous roads

to reach the town.

The airlines are refunding

passengers for flights.

Agents can contact Airlink

Reservations on 011 451

7350 for assistance.
