FlySafair have a surprise in store for you this festive season

J Sbu sat down with the team from FlySafair to talk about something truly magical taking to our skies this festive season. For years, they’ve dreamed of creating a Christmas livery that would wow South Africans, and this year, that dream came true.

Picture this: Santa in his sleigh, packed with gifts, being pulled by an African buck, all beautifully branded on a FlySafair aircraft. The story behind it is just as charming. Santa was worried about delivering presents on time, so one of his elves suggested FlySafair, Africa’s most on-time airline. The result? Santa’s new sleigh is flying across SA, spreading festive cheer.

Plus, there’s a big giveaway. Here’s J Sbu’s full chat with FlySafair's Chief Marketing Officer, Kirby Gordon, about this incredible campaign.
