US travel mag awards South African Airways

Damion Rose, Manager Marketing Promotions for South African Airways, receives the awards from Jerry Allison, Group Publisher at Business Traveler.

Readers of the US based magazine are world-class experts in the business of travel who know quality when they experience it and they selected South African Airways among a variety of top travel products and services. The awards were presented to SAA at a ceremony held on 8 January, at the Loews Hollywood Hotel in Hollywood, CA. This recognition comes on top of Skytrax naming SAA "Best Airline in Africa" for the 12th consecutive year.

"It is a distinguished honour to receive these awards and we thank all Business Traveler's readers who chose us as their favourite airline in Africa," says Nico Bezuidenhout, SAA Acting Chief Executive.

"This further demonstrates SAA's commitment to excellence and reinforces our belief, in keeping with our Long-Term Turnaround Strategy, that an outstanding customer experience is what makes a great airline."
