South African private sector airline Airlink has acknowledged the decision of the Johannesburg High Court, regarding the carrier’s application against the State-owned South African Airways (SAA). Airlink was seeking to recover about R890-million from SAA, but the Court dismissed its application. “Airlink respects the Court’s decision, it is after all the duty of the company’s leadership to explore every available avenue to recover the funds,” said Airlink CEO and MD Rodger Foster. “Meanwhile, we will continue to focus on growing Airlink as an independent, financially robust, commercially vibrant, competitive and sustainable airline.”
