Mango announces introduction of leisure schedule between Johannesburg, George
Marketing 25
Low cost airline Mango has announced that the introduction of a leisure schedule between Johannesburg and George with bookings for flights departing Monday, 18 November onwards are now available. Flights between the cities will operate Fridays through to Mondays with an initial frequency of one daily air lift in either direction.
Johannesburg to George is the airline’s third new domestic route in the past twelve months.
“The route between Johannesburg and George as well as its frequencies and scheduling were designed particularly with the leisure market in mind,” says Mango CEO, Nico Bezuidenhout. “As the midway point in the Garden Route with spectacular natural beauty, George provides access to close-by destinations such as Knysna, Plettenberg Bay and Wildernis among others. It represents a totally new market for Mango with traveller volumes expected to show sustained growth over the next twelve months.”
Mango launched two routes in early December 2012; between Port Elizabeth and Johannesburg and Port Elizabeth and Cape Town. “The routes have been performing particularly well indicating that there is a strong demand for value driven air travel along the Eastern Cape and lower Western Cape seaboard,” says Bezuidenhout. “The Johannesburg George route’s potential commercial value is concomitant to research measuring demand along our coastline.” Mango now operates to 90% of South Africa’s major airports.
Bookings for flights departing from Monday, 18 November onwards between Johannesburg and George is now available across all the airline’s distribution channels.
