Cons: FlySafair forced me to pay for my second bag - even though my ticket was clearly marked "2 bags" all the way to Cape Town. Totally disgusted with this airline, not honoring the ticket. And they way they treated me about it makes me never want to fly with them again. Warning: Seats don't recline!!!

Low cost, high value
Pros: The planes seem fresh and new. The staff were efficient and professional. Although a budget airline, we thought they offered value for money.
Cons: Can't think of anything. Although expectations weren't high, they surpassed them.Reviewed Jul 2016review from
