At the BARSA Aviation Summit 2025, industry leaders explored the future of air connectivity in Africa and the opportunities that lie ahead. Key takeaways: • Growth is coming – Africa’s aviation sector is set for major expansion in the next 20-30 years. • Challenges remain – Outdated infrastructure, high costs, and regulatory barriers need urgent attention. • Unserved routes hold potential – Harare-London and Johannesburg-Mumbai could be key growth corridors. • Regional agreements like AfCFTA can drive progress but require stronger implementation. • Tourism as a catalyst – Events like the G20 summit are increasing demand for new routes. • Collaboration is key – Governments, airlines, and airports must work together to overcome barriers. Africa’s aviation future is bright, but action is needed. Let’s keep pushing for greater connectivity, investment, and collaboration! #BARSASummit2025 #AviationGrowth #ConnectingAfrica #AirConnectivity #FutureOfAviation

5 years ago on this day, in the early days of COVID-19, uncertainty gripped the world. Fear was everywhere, but so was the call to act. Amid the unknown, a team of brave men and women at SAA ✈️ stepped forward, raising their hands for a mission few dared to take, bringing stranded South Africans 🇿🇦home from Wuhan🇨🇳 . It was more than a flight. It was a statement of courage 💪, duty, and unwavering commitment to our people. That same spirit keeps us flying today, through every challenge, for every South African. 🚀
