“South African Airways is truly the best airline for flights to more of Africa than any other airline,” said Marc Cavaliere, executive vice president, North America for South African Airways. “Our ‘Buy-One-Get-One-Free’ program highlights our daily non-stop service from JFK to Dakar, the gateway to Western Africa, and encourages travelers to experience all of the wonders that Senegal and West Africa have to offer.”

He added, “We have had such great success with our ‘Buy-One-Get-One’ specials for South Africa (which are available for purchase through January 22, 2008) that we decided to reward our many loyal customers who’ve traveled with us to Senegal with a similar deal!” Mr. Cavaliere also encouraged travelers to sign up at www.flysaa.com to be notified of other great South African Airways travel deals and vacation packages.
