SAA and Virgin Atlantic will end their codeshare in September,
which has existed since 2004. A date has been fixed, September
26, on which the airlines will terminate the codeshare on domestic
routes, SAA spokesperson Tlali Tlali told TNW. “As we do not
codeshare on any trunk routes, this will effectively terminate
the codeshare.” Virgin is currently rebooking all passengers
on cancelled codeshare flights on to the SA operating flight.
Passengers booked on flights for travel up to and including
September 26 are not affected. “Going forward, we will have
a relationship with SAA on an interline basis as part of our
commitment to the Johannesburg route,” said Darrin Thomas,
marketing and communications executive of Virgin Atlantic.
To the point
