Guest: Desmond Latham, COO frayintermedia- Aviation Expert

Africa is joined by Desmond Latham, COO at FrayIntermedia to talk about South African Airways applying for an extension of its existing exemptions for flights between South Africa and America with Delta airlines.


Business Insider reported that the rights were revoked by the US government in 2021 in response to South Africa's treatment of Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines. Delta applied for Cape Town flights to be included as part of the existing Atlanta-Johannesburg route. 


This request, lodged two years ago was originally rejected, and only approved by the South African government earlier this year.
