Voyager SAA frequent flyer program

South African Airways' Voyager program can be used to obtain cheaper SAA flights, but needs to be used very carefully in order to reap benefits from it - in particular note that you need to pay airport taxes. You can earn Voyager miles when flying with SAA or other members of the Star Alliance, as well as 8 other affiliated airlines; when staying with hotel partners or hiring a car from car rental partners.

News

Voyager members going to the Women's Advancement Forum (from the 28th April to the 3rd May 2013 at the Birchwood Hotel in Johannesburg) get a fifty percent discount on the entrance fee, and could get a 5 to 18% discount on SAA flights to the forum (subject to availability). Use promotional code WAF2013.
In celebration of their 5th new route to Africa, SAA Voyager is offering double miles for flights from JNB to Cotonou in all revenue classes up to 30 July 2012.

I paid R1451 for my "free" Voyager SAA flight

I booked a return flights from Cape Town to Johannesburg using my Voyager miles, and had to pay R801 for "VAT & Taxes". This compares to R125 Airport Taxes that one has to pay with Kulula Air for a return flight (SAA is R676 more expensive).

With an infant it's worse

In my specific instance it was even worse, as I had an infant with me. Kulula Air charges nothing extra for an infant. However, SAA charged R650 taxes for the infant as well. All in all I therefore paid R1451 for my "free" Voyager SAA flight, which worked out more expensive than the all-in expenses of a flight with a low cost carrier.

Complaints against SAA Voyager

14 November 20008 Mr O Garbman's complaint against SAA Voyager is dismissed. Mr Garbman complained that he could not access the business class lounge in London, which he says was allowed for in SAA Voyager brochures. South African Airways argued that Premium Cardholders will only gain access to "SAA owned & operated business class departure lounges", and the lounge in Heathrow is owned by the Star Alliance.
