Our heritage is more than memory: It is South Africa's bridge to Africa and the world
South Africa’s heritage sites can do more than preserve the past: they can support African knowledge production, cultural diplomacy, education, tourism and difficult conversations about history.
The introduction of a new 102-seater aircraft by Africa World Airlines (AWA) is anticipated to increase passenger capacity and enhance domestic air connectivity, according to Transport Minister Joseph Bukari Nikpe. The government has been urging airlines to pass on the benefits of recent duty exemptions into lower airfares. The new Embraer E190 aircraft, unveiled by AWA, is expected to support the airline's efforts to expand capacity and strengthen connectivity on domestic routes.
The government's stance is that lower operating costs resulting from duty exemptions, combined with increased aircraft capacity, should result in reduced fares for passengers.
