■ SOUTH AFRICA: 1Time wants reductions in fuel levy, taxes as private airlines react angrily to SAA bailout.
1Time (T6), the South African LCC, has clarified the air over reports in the press that it had written to the South African government seeking a bail out (akin to what national carrier South African Airways (SA) secured last week), stating that their proposal centred around the South African government subsidising the
airline industry as a whole with selected levies and taxes, and not
to only offer unfair bail outs to South African
Airways and its affiliate SAExpress (XZ).
