We are due to go from JNB to Hoedspruit in a group of 4. Options are to use SAA (that had very similar issues a few years back - all resolved within around 24hrs) or go by road. I would prefer to use Cemair if possible. I can book a road transfer with a reputable company (Blacklane) that is fully flexible until an hour before and for 4 pax works out cheaper than 4 tickets with SAA. I will book the road option and hope to cancel it. The return will be from Hoedspruit to Cape Town for 2 of us and I will probably go ahead and book with SAA if this is not resolved by the start of next week.
