SAA to be split into three units

Wings, Fuselage and Tail?

I don't think that's gonna work...

(and if you think this is not funny... neither is their proposed plan gonna work either).
 
Next up: Splitting HIV into 3 parts:

H - Solve the humans first.
I - Give them Berocca.
V - Treat the symptoms until it's over and you're sorted.

I cured AIDS.
 
Sounds weird, from the way I understand it at the moment it is

Long Haul - SAA
Reigonal - SAX
Domestic - Mango/SAA (SAA being the "premium" brand)

Not much difference then
 
It would be easier to sell it off then.
The domestic can be sold to mango, regional to kulula and the international can be left with government along with the billions in debt.

SAA technical and whatever support could be a 4th business.

Not at all. It makes business sense.

See where the problem is and cut the loss makers (Privatize). Then it can work. We all know this is not what Government is going to do though...
 
Dear SAA management, we pay you over-inflated salaries to manage the business most efficiently.

Please show us the business plan for each of these new businesses and how you will turn them around, cut costs and increase revenues. Don't just tell us that splitting a dead horse into three will magically turn the pieces into profitable, lean racing horses.

We don't believe your bullshyte any more than we believe Eskom's bullshyte. We are real taxpayers, not labour union socialist leeches.

Ultimately they would have to close down one or two business entities anyway so does not really solve the problems.

Only the national routes are profitable, regional (ie rest of Africa) is running at a loss and that wont change.
 
State-owned airline SAA will not be broken up into three separate entities, but does plan to change its operating model, according to SAA spokesperson Tlali Tlali.

Tlali was responding to a news headline stating CEO Vuyani Jarana said on Monday the cash-strapped airline will split into three.

Tlali told Fin24 this was a misunderstanding.

I posed the same question w.r.t. Eskom's breakup into 3: what is zero divided by three?

SAA being split up is completely different from Eskom.
With Eskom it should have been two, then you can easily add IPP to the grid and have transparent pricing with the Eskom's power generation division.

For SAA it makes no sense as they probably share aircrafts, same airport agreements, engineers/maintenance, etc.
