Business rescue practitioners had filed the application, warning that the state-owned airline had no hope of making it after the state denied post-commencement funding.

As the global aviation industry battles to survive the economic fallout of the pandemic, FlySafair says that the longer South Africa remains in lockdown, the harder it will be to recover.
