South African Airways (SAA) will suspend flights between Johannesburg and Hong Kong from Saturday, November 23 until December 14.

The airline says it needs to recover from losses incurred on the route, which used to operate four times weekly, and refocus its resources.

SAA plans to implement a re-accommodation policy for customers booked on services to and from Hong Kong.
