5 Click to edit Master subtitle style 9/2/09 OPERATIONAL CONSTRAINTS  AIRPORT CAPACITY Insufficient movement capacity Nelspruit-4 movements per hour, Pilansberg-6 movements per hour. SAA is partnering with airports for creative solutions Insufficient ground handling capacity Pilansberg, Bloemfontein, Polokwane-no equipment. SAA to source. Insufficient infrastructure Airports are too small-temporary tents required. Partnering with airport management and Match on requirements Insufficient security measures Not enough x-ray machines/metal detectors. SAA securing from existing infrastructure Insufficient landside infrastructure Hundreds of coaches at each airport. SAA to use hangers  HOTEL CAPACITY FOR CREW-Third party (wet leased a/c). Match assisting.  24 HOUR OPERATIONS-ATC, fuelling, catering, ground handling, staff  INSUFFICIENT CREW-Crew levels to be gradually increased from Jan 2010

Heavy demand patterns before and after matches. ‘Red-eye’ flights through the night. SAA staff hours to be increased. Retired staff and third parties to be utilised to minimise fatigue and improve service Baggage security and service teams to be established to eradicate pilferage and ensure a high level of service.

11 Click to edit Master subtitle style 9/2/09 STRATEGIC THREATS TO SAA OPS Industrial Action-Staff and vendors (ground handling, catering, fuelling) Technical problems-Aircraft are going to be fully utilised with little room for downtime. Technical to establish AOG teams. Landside infrastructure-Coach requirements will overwhelm airports. SAA will utilise Technical facility in JNB and CPT for Match traffic to reduce this Fuel Supply-SAA will effectively be tripling operations over this period. Small stations cannot supply fuel (Pilansberg, Nelspruit etc.) Investigating ‘splash and dash’ at other airports.

12 Click to edit Master subtitle style 9/2/09 SAA TECHNICAL Scheduling of daily and weekly checks Support to SAA, British Airways and other fleets. Storage of spares and support equipment on behalf of other airlines Manpower to be re-directed to assist operations in Technical FOAM requirements set to increase (foreign operator support). Technical equipment to support operations (tugs etc.) Teams on standby for AOG or other technical problems. A problem on a different fleet can impact our fleet movements. Potential servicing of Match® fleet by SAA Technical. Coordination of Technical areas for additional parking Potential for remote check-in stations for Match® requirements within Technical areas Opportunity to market a world-class technical facility to various airlines from all over the world................END............
