Airline Control Systems will be offering Johannesburg - Margate flights in December.
Keen on a holiday to Libya now that the colonel is gone? Etihad Airways has said it will begin flights to Tripoli "as soon as the NATO no-fly zone is lifted, the airport is declared safe and all appropriate infrastructure is in place" (the UAE as amongst the first to recognise the new government in Libya).
Cape Town's Royal Cape Yacht Club, Granger Bay Water Club and False Bay Yacht Club were the first marinas to receive Blue Flag pilot status from Patricia de Lille, the Executive Mayor of Cape Town.
Thank goodness we are past the days of SAA requiring bailouts - the new CEO and new Chairlady seem to be doing a fine job. Unfortuanately the same is not true of the Namibian national carrier - Air Namibia has just signed papers to purchase 2 new Airbus 319-100 aircraft, as part of another turnaround plan where the Namibian Treasury is sinking N$1.191billion into the airline.
When running a national carrier becomes a matter of national pride, rather than something which makes financial sense for the country, you see decisions like subsidising the flying class by N$1.191billion rather than spending the money on uplifting the poor.
The Purple shall rule! "The drivers of City to City they must stop giving some people a lift/hike, because they delay the bus in reaching the station. I hate what happened yesterday - a bus from East london 13:10 to Pretoria making some pocket money and they don't want somebody in the 4 front seats - why? I was curious to view this on the road to JHB." King Pie

The Bottom Line: Fantastic to see South Africa gain a position to 35th place in this report measuring the ease of doing business. There were 183 countries in the survey - Chad came last, and
Singapore came first.
"South Africa made starting a business easier
by implementing its new company law, which
eliminated the requirement to reserve a company name and simplified the incorporation
documents. South Africa made transferring property less costly and more efficient by reducing the
transfer duty and introducing electronic filing.
South Africa introduced a new reorganization
process to facilitate the rehabilitation of financially distressed companies.". Well done to the government - we need more of this! Let's see what steps we need to take to get us to be number 1!
The easier it is to do business, the more businesses are likely to start up which means more jobs for all of us.
