Avis and South African Airways announce partnership after relaunch of flights to Perth

Car rental company Avis has announced a partnership with South African Airways (SAA) following the relaunch of its Perth to Johannesburg route after a four-year hiatus.

“Avis is proud to partner with SAA to provide an integrated travel experience that ensures our customers receive the highest standard of service both in the air, and on the ground. This collaboration marks a significant step forward in offering seamless and convenient travel solutions,” Avis Southern Africa chief sales executive, Litha Nkombisa, said.

SAA continues to strengthen its presence in the global airspace, focusing on expanding its reach through strategic partnerships with key airline partners, said its general manager of sales, marketing, distribution and e-commerce, Carla Da Silva, said.

“We are excited about our partnership with Avis, as it allows us an opportunity to extend our commitment to exceptional service beyond the skies. This collaboration offers our passengers preferential pricing and exclusive specials on car rentals across all our routes. Together with Avis, we aim to make every journey a memorable one,” Da Silva said.
