  • How to fly more sustainably from OR Tambo to Cape Town?

    It’s no secret that plastic is one of the biggest threats to our environment. Therefore, you should look for any and every way to avoid using it. Plastic water bottles are a particular scourge so take your own reusable water bottle instead of accepting any of the small complimentary bottles of water you’re offered. The flight to Cape Town only takes a little over two hours so if you’re taking a flight at meal-times on FlySafair, rather have something to eat before you leave to save on at least one set of plastic containers and cutlery. Another eco-friendly thing you can do is check the type of aircraft on the various flights – they’re displayed alongside the other flight details and use Google if you need to identify the latest models as these have more fuel efficient engine technology than the older ones.
