Velvet Sky Takes To The Air

Starting March 22, South Africa’s newest carrier will launch its inaugural flight from Johannesburg to Durban.
Following months of speculation and rumours, Velvet Sky Aviation yesterday announced its launch.

“As a new airline offering the lowest possible ticket prices, our corporate philosophy mandates cost saving through all levels of our operation. It was this mandate that dictated the city of Durban, with its lowered operating costs as the administrative centre of the business.”

“In-flight service will consist of pre-ordered snack boxes and drinks which are available online as part of the booking process. You can also book meals at the check-in desks in the terminals. Skychefs, which are part of the Lufthansa group will be providing on board catering. Alcohol is unavailable on our flights, for now, said Cecil Reddy, chairman of Velvet Sky.”
