MANGO Airlines will give
travel vouchers to travellers
who have paid what the
airline calls “excessive
luggage allowance charges”
to fly with its competitors.
The promotion runs until
January 31.
The airline will exchange
R1 million in receipts, for up
to R200 per person, against
checked bag charges of
its competitors on certain
competing routes.
Travellers will be able to
collect vouchers at Mango
Guest Service Counters (in
airports where the airline
competes with other lowcost
airlines) to redeem
when booking their next
flight with Mango. “Travellers
must present their checked
bag receipt as well as
positive identification to
receive vouchers toward
their next Mango flight
to the same value,” says
Mango spokesperson, Hein
Kaiser. The vouchers will
be redeemable against any
Mango flight outside of
promotional offers for six
months.
“Mango’s checked bag
allowance is 20kg and
allows for up to two bags
combined to reach the
weight limit with hand
luggage pegged at 7kg,”
says Hein.
At the same time Mango
has upped its baggage
allowance between Cape
Town and Port Elizabeth to
30kg checked luggage for
the same period.
Kulula.com charges R245
(online and contact centre
bookings) or R350 (at the
airport) for a second bag
under the 20kg limit. On
its website, FlySafair, which
doesn’t include checked-in
luggage in its fares, informs
passengers of a R150
(online or call centre) or
R250 (at the airport) fee for
a first bag under 20kg, with
an additional R250 charge
for a second bag under that
limit.
