Checking the board at this hour and it seems as though all flights are on track except on flight to #Kimberly that’s been cancelled. It appears it’s an #SAA flight. pic.twitter.com/vD79gIzFOw — Heidi Giokos (@HeidiGiokos) October 23, 2019 Yesterday’s flight cancellations come after SAA was accused of using fake parts to repair some of its aircraft, an accusation the SAA board insists is untrue.
