DEPARTURE delays for flights leaving King Shaka and O.R. Tambo International Airports are due to Air Traffic and Navigation Services (ATNS) constraints.

- KAREN SINGH

This is according to FlySafair in response to complaints from passengers who experienced lengthy delays at both airports on Monday and yesterday.

According to passengers on Monday, there were departure delays of up to two hours, and yesterday, there was a 40-minute delay.

"There's definitely something wrong with the controls. Right now, we've waited 40 minutes after boarding; we haven't moved, and we are number eight in the queue, they say," said one passenger.
