SAA is a premium brand proud to associate with other quality and established premium brands to offer customers a world-class service when travelling.

From 1 April 2013, SAA customers will be able to flip through the pages of a newly designed onboard magazine, Sawubona, and enjoy sipping on one of the world’s finest champagnes, Taittinger, as well as select cuisine from a menu designed by Chef Benny Masekwameng, Executive Chef of Tsogo Sun.

SAA is confident that the fresh, warm design and editorial approach sets Sawubona apart from other inflight magazine.

Through the introduction of one of the world’s finest champagnes, Taittinger, it is evident that SAA only offers the best of the best to customers travelling business class on international and long-haul regional flights.
