Mzansi weighs in on airline experiences
The comment section erupted with South Africans sharing their varied flying experiences.
@marvinkunene issued a warning to fellow travellers:
"Wait till you fly with Cemair😭😭😭"
@Jola Maxz offered their airline experience rankings:
"SAA is the best. I think Lift is also good. FlySafair has become a taxi these days..."
The debate intensified when @Khaya Masilela🇿🇦 defended the airline:
"Every plane has turbulence. Anyone who believes that it's only FlySafair has never been on a plane."
However, the video creator quickly countered:
"We all know that every plane has turbulence but from my experience, it's worse on FlySafair. And I've been on more than 100 flights locally and internationally."
@Sabelo Ntuli🇿🇦🇿🇦 added some humour to the discussion:
"FlySafair's take off can be late but you will definitely arrive one hour early."
@Homes of Limpopo Province took a nostalgic turn:
"Mango airlines was the best. I still miss them."
Travel tips from experienced flyers
As the conversation continued, seasoned travellers shared their wisdom.
@disco285 offered practical advice:
"If you are afraid of turbulence, pick middle seats, seats lining up with aircraft wings. That's the plane's centre of gravity."
Meanwhile, @Kali Mija suggested a more lighthearted approach:
"Just pretend you're on a bus😭 It works for me."
