SAA Webpage not working
 
I am trying to book domestic fares through SAA webpage. No luck.
Is this normal? Any ideas?

Flights that I am looking are:
18Mar JNB-MQP
20Mar JNB-CPT

Skyscanner quotes only fare part of the domestic ticket without adding fuel surcharge and tax. I guess skycanner is also having wrong info from SAA.

Maid? Unplugging? Plugging????

Do I need to undertstand anything from these?
Then I have to say that I do not.

Could be the site is down or the maid unplugged the computer.

But, I've found the routinely, SAA's US and SA site are buggy to not working at all when using Firefox. I usually use Internet Explorer or, on occasion, Safari, without issue.

Ah... that could explain my recent woes with the site. It definitely has been shockingly buggy with Firefox.

For me, it's a regular occurrence. I'll often forget and get somewhere in the process of using the site with Firefox only to realize that I should have been using IE or Safari. Have to start everything all over again.

Website isn't loading on Safari or Chrome for me. Worked yesterday for me. Oh well, I'll check back later.

Site is working right now on Chrome, and Firefox, sorry dont have Safari.

Just made a CPT booking for May via the site.
And a Voyager mileagekeeper in April to Hong Kong.


Are you trying to access it locally or outside SA. I had issues in the US last year it wouldnt load.

I also had problems on line trying to book JNB to CPT. Could only get so far and then got an error messge. After the 4th attempt I gave up and called the US 800 number. Booked over the phone at the same price as the web. Easy.

Normally I don't have issues with the site, but I am accessing it from the US. I just waited a little bit and then it worked and was able to make a JNB-DUR booking.

SAA websites are generally more down than they are up

A useful tool I use on occasion is this one: http://www.isup.me

(Is <enter URL> down for everyone or just me?)

Right this minute, it says: It's not just you! http://www.flysaa.com looks down from here.
