Business Class
Our Long-haul Flights
Turning left when you step onboard is always a treat and whether you’re a seasoned traveller or a first-timer, our Business Class cabin is sure to impress. We pull out all the stops to treat Business Class customers to an unforgettable journey. You’ll be welcomed onboard with a refreshing drink and given an amenity bag stocked with travel necessities and indulgent cosmetics.
Our exquisite à la carte menu, proudly South African cheese board and skillfully selected wine list will give you a high-class dining experience.
We know you might need to catch up on you work, so your spacious seating area can also become your office on-the-move. Each seat has its own power portal so you can keep your laptop charged while you work and recharge your phone while you fly.
When you’re ready to sleep, you’ll love our award-winning flatbed seats. They’re made from the finest leather and fabric and lie completely flat at 180° for a good night’s rest under a soft duvet with luxuriously large pillows and a padded seat cover which provides extra comfort. Noise cancellation headsets help block out the cabin noise allowing you to watch your favourite movie uninterrupted.
For our Business Class customers travelling on our new A330-300, we offer a new design of flat-bed that's almost 2 metres long when fully extended. With an updated cabin layout, each of these seats has increased privacy, individual aisle access and offer even more personal stowage. Enjoy the added comfort and increased privacy provided by our innovative, luxurious new cabin.
*On select flights.
Our Short-haul Flights
From the moment you board, our thoughtfully designed Business Class experience will make your journey as comfortable as possible. An easily adjustable headrest with adaptable ears, ample stowage space, generous legroom with leg rests and a handy coat hook welcome you as you settle in.
Each Business Class seat also has its own USB and laptop charging point, so your devices are always powered and ready to use.

Economy Class

Our Economy Class seats offer extra space and generous legroom for your travelling comfort. To make your flight more enjoyable, Economy Class customers are offered a handy amenity kit with socks, eyeshades and a toothbrush and toothpaste.
At SAA, we believe that travelling should be a pleasure for the whole family, so parents are welcome to pre-order meals for children and babies and pre-book a baby bassinet if necessary. We also offer a fun activity pack for kids and our inflight entertainment system has channels specially designed to keep our little travellers amused for hours. If you are travelling with a wheelchair or small children, you’re welcome to use the larger lavatory in the middle of Economy Class, thoughtfully designed at double the size of ordinary lavatories and fitted with a large baby-changing table.
Our A330-300 Economy Class is fitted with 203 newly designed, slim-line seats, all with extra personal space and generous legroom for travelling comfort. Each seat is fitted with a 10-inch screen, individual USB charging ports, and access to shared PC power points. Boredom will not be an option on our A330-300 flight thanks to our state-of-the-art on-demand inflight entertainment system. These high-tech touchscreens are fun and easy to use, giving you access to many hours of entertainment.
