FlySafair hold the birthday party of the decade

Image
  South Africa’s favourite low-cost airline is celebrating its 10 th birthday in style with the return of its infamous annual mega sale. This year, the airline will be selling a limited number of tickets for just R10, airport tax included. In the past this almost too-good-to-be-true sale has brought the country to a near stand-still as customers across the country are glued to multiple devices, hoping to be one of the lucky ones to gain access to the website and bag themselves some cheap seats. Much like previous years, FlySafair has scattered the marked down flights across all its domestic routes. There will be 50 000 of these individual one-way seats available for departure dates between May and the 30 th of November 2024. “This sale is always a highlight in our year,” says Kirby Gordon, Chief Marketing Officer at FlySafair. “But being a milestone birthday, this year feels a little extra special.

Image
  The image is a familiar one, straight out of a Hollywood script: an airplane in distress, a heroic figure battling through the cockpit door, only to find no human pilot at the helm. It's a scene that once seemed purely fictional, but with today's advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), the question arises: how close are we to AI-piloted flights? Kirby Gordon, Chief Marketing Officer at FlySafair, sheds some light on this intriguing subject.   While autopilot systems have been trusted companions in aviation for years, the dawn of fully autonomous, AI-piloted aircraft still lies beyond the horizon.
