South African Airways (SAA) will add a new Airbus A350-900 aircraft to its fleet. The aircraft will operate on one of SAA’s long haul routes between Johannesburg and New York’s John F Kennedy International Airport (JFK), replacing the A340-600 aircraft on this route and will still be operated on a non-stop basis. SAA will lease the aircraft for up to three years. SAA will take delivery of the aircraft in the second half of 2019. The aircraft will be operational in SAA’s branding as soon as SAA has met the regulatory authority requirements.
