Leaving the Nest
2014-02-04 : Rating
4/5 : "This is a picture of the Mango flight that my daughter took on the 30.01.14 from Durban to Johannesburg (what a remarkable sight). The flight time was leaving Durban at 9.05am and arriving in Johannesburg at 10.45am. The flight was slightly delayed due to bad weather conditions on
that day - We did not mind this as my daughter, who is 22 years and has just completed her Honours Degree at the University of Kwa-Zulu Natal last year had to move over to honour and fulfil her career with the National Treasury (so to us the delay meant that we spend few more
precious moments with her). Just being out of university and only just starting her dream career, my daughter who has not collected her first pay check was looking for the cheapest way to fly up, and since she had used 
Mango previously when she came up to the National Treasury to sign her
contract with them and do her internship, my daughter knew that Mango was the flight that she was going to use to fly up for her move over trip and even for her week-end trips to visit her parents in Durban. Mango flights are the cheapest - and their travel fees comes with a bonus says my daughter- which is A GOOD SMOOTH RIDE AT THE RIGHT PRICE. My daughter also says that her flight on the 30.01.14 was overwhelming although she was sad to leave Durban to settle in her new town, the friendly staff personnel, the great service and made her journey so memorable. Since my daughter will be commuting to and from Durban we will be surfing the net for the best possible rates and we hope that Mango is on tops with the highest possible discounted rates and of course vouchers might just be the answer. PS- Who knows if we have enough discount vouchers, I will probably fly my daughter down every week-end return ticket and also since my husband, my second daughter and little son have never been on an aeroplane in our lives, we could use Mango and visit my daughter in Pretoria and make our dreams come true. My daughter says she would give Mango a rating of 4 out of 5. As her parent, and having booked her tickets online, I would like to thank Mango airlines for standing by her as she took her journey into another town in the most safest and friendliest way possible. Travelling Mango is travelling with a piece of mind. Thanks Mango and well done - together you have helped my daughter reach for the sky!". Jaggie
"...and most importantly love"
2014-01-24 : Rating 5/5 : "I've been fortunate enough to travel in the country and use different airlines. My last trip to JHB was the first time I had used Mango. Now usually the air-hostesses are polite people who do what is expected of them. On this flight there was an old couple who we were sitting next to before we boarded the plane. This was the first time they were leaving Durban and the first time they were using a plane! Understandably they were scared and didn't know what to do, but, they were in such good care it amazed everyone on that flight! Mr and Mrs Mkizi had attention and support and most importantly love. Never have I seen that before. Their names were announced when the air hostess spoke and told everyone that this was their 60th anniversary and first flight. It was such a sight to see that everyone clapped and let them leave the plane first, the lady started crying." Mrs ZB Suleman
"The first time I had set foot on a plane"
2014-01-22 : Rating 5/5 : "'I'm 37 yrs old and I had never been on a flight until the end of March last year. I went on a simple flight from Durban to Johannesburg. Its was the first time I had put a foot on a plane. It was the most amazing experience ever! The staff were so kind and helpful. They understood my fears and told me to just sit back and relax and enjoy the experience. I had always said that I wanted to go somewhere on a plane even if it was to go from one city to the next, just to experience the feeling of being in the air. And that's what I did. I booked a window seat and couldn't believe the beauty that lay before me... The sight was amazing! I was so taken by it all that my fears just ebbed away. And I marvel led at the sights and scenery like a little kid in a candy shop! All this was possible because Mango made it affordable enough for me to be able to make this trip with their affordable prices and specials on flights. I was not able to take my husband on this flight with me but I intend to do so if I win the 2 tickets up for grabs. I would love to share this experience with my husband of 12 years should I get the chance in the near future. Thank you Mango for making it possible for me to afford at least just one flight on a plane. It's an experience I will never forget.". Mrs ZB Suleman

Efficiency All the Way
2014-01-19 Rating 4/5 "Recently I had a chance to travel again and being the holiday season, airfare rates were a bit high. Nonetheless, I managed to get a reasonably well priced deal from mango airlines and flew up to Jhb for a most delightful weekend. The night before I was due to fly, sadly also marked the day that our hero and stalwart Tata Madiba passed away. Needless to say the airport the following morning was a hive of activity. It was the first time I was using long term parking at King Shaka International, and I felt a bit lost and apprehensive. However the airport staff at the parking were extremely helpful, even the gentleman that loaded my luggage on the golf cart and gave us a ride to the main airport building. Once inside it was efficiency all the way despite the large number of people suddenly wanting flights to Johannesburg. Our flight was on schedule and the ride to Gauteng was relatively comfortable. Upon landing at O.R Tambo international we chose to utilize the gautrain, that shuttles you directly from the airport to certain suburbs of Johannesburg. And what a world class experience it was indeed! I loved the smooth glide of the very comfortable train and the novelty of travelling by train....one snag though. Lugging your baggage through the different stations was a bit cumbersome. We then took the shuttle bus service from Rosebank station to our destination. The next few days in vibrant Johannesburg proved memorable. The abundance of halaal eateries and fine restaurants. The shopping mecca of South Africa. We even explored the largest hospital in the southern region, Chris Hani Baragwanath hospital in Soweto and the Nelson Mandela square in Sandton where wreaths and a plethora of flowers carpeted the ground in honour of this hero. I awakened within me a new found respect for our beautiful country and it's many improvements. Last but not least we said a prayer in the magnificent Nizamiye mosque near Germiston. Leaving loved ones is never easy and this was a goodbye I was dreading but then a ray of hope and I was told we could spend an extra day together. I hurriedly called Mango Airlines wanting to reschedule my flight and the staff at the call centre patiently bore my indecisiveness as I went through the flight schedules for the fifth time while deciding which flight to take. The flight back was a bittersweet moment, everything going smoothly. Once again a big thanks to the staff at King Shaka international who helped with baggage retrieval, parking fees etc. Looking back, I can't help but smile on a fantastic weekend and this beautiful country of ours. Proudly South African." Aamina Jeewa
Be sure to present Credit Card
2014-01-01 : Rating 1/5 : I have travelled world wide and have not had a worse experience than the one I had this morning with Mango Airlines. I booked a flight for my niece on Flight JE244 from Durban to Johannesburg. I booked online and I used my credit card to pay for the flight. I fully understand and accept the principle of presenting the credit card used for the booking when checking in at the airport as this safe guards fraudulent use of credit cards. I accompanied my niece who is 18 to the airport so that I can present my credit card and have her check in without any issues. At the entrance to the Mango check in counters there was a DIY machine. An employee of the airport was assisting people to use the self check in system. She asked if my niece had any luggage to check in and she said no as she just had carry on luggage. The lady punched in my niece's reference number and gave her the printed ticket. I had my credit card in my hand but it was not requested. We thought nothing of this. I left my niece to board her flight and left. At the time of boarding the flight my niece was told that she cannot board the plane without presenting the credit card. My niece contacted me and by this time I already was at my next appointment away from the airport. I left my commitments and rushed to the airport I reached the airport 10 minutes prior to the take off of the plane. I presented my Credit Card at the Mango check in counter. During all of this time my niece stood like a common criminal at the inside area where the plane was waiting for verification of the credit card. She did get on the flight as the last passenger 5 minutes before take off. What an unpleasant situation for her. Whilst I do agree on the policy of verifying the credit card, under this situation where a person assisted her to check in and did not advise on the credit card verification surely this situation could have been handled better. Management is not true management at Mango Airlines as they were not equipped to make a professional decision around this issue. I feel awful for my niece as she came to us for a short holiday and left with such an awful experience. Mango Airlines has indeed left a terrible lasting impression for both myself as well as for my niece. Sally
Will fly Mango Again
2013-09-19 : Rating 5/5 : "It was my first time being in an airplane, and I didn't know what to expect being a twenty year old. I was flying from Durban to Johannesburg, alone. I was so perplexed at how friendly the crew was, they all wore a smile that never fell off. They even assisted me with adjusting my seat. The Mango crew was very professional, the captain informed us how the weather was in Joburg, and explained everything he had to do to keep up with the weather coming to Joburg. What I really enjoyed is that refreshments are also offered on board, that helped a lot as I had left Durban without having something to eat. I had the greatest experience ever! Next time I fly, I will fly Mango again. Keep up the good work! I vote Mango a very fat 5!" Skonjelwayo
Mangolicious Flight
2013-08-22 : Rating 5/5 : "A bright Mango day to you. I last flew back from Dur to OR Tambo in April, flying Mango as always. Me and my friends/colleagues fly Mango because its on time, efficient ande has friendly staff (airport and onboard). I do not miss Mango Happy Day Sales and have never missed happy hour on Wednesdays either. I rate Mango 10/10. Last time I travelled to Durban to meet my daughter and my siblings and the trip was awesome. I am travelling again from OR on the 12th September to DUR and back on the 15th September - we have our AGM (work related) in Durban at Elangeni (all Dental Technologists). Have a Mangolicious day".
