FlySafair is a South African low-cost airline and the largest domestic carrier in the country. It is a subsidiary of Safair Operations, which has provided specialized aviation services since 1965. The airline officially launched its own passenger flights in 2014, with a focus on affordable fares. The airline’s planned launch in 2013 was temporarily blocked by a court order due to rival carriers’ complaints about its local ownership percentage. This led to a restructuring of its ownership before it could begin flying.
