Parliament Portfolio Committee on Trade, Industry and Competition said that the Competition Commission should investigate South African airlines for their exorbitant ticket prices.
As reported by [News24), the committee chairperson said that local airlines, including FlySafair, Lift, and CemAir, have increased prices to levels that make travel unaffordable for South Africans.
The committee noted that some budget airlines have displaced the embattled South African Airways as budget airlines.
That said, their costs are seen as exorbitant and unaffordable for South Africans.
