We finally get onto MANGO airlines
Welcome Mango – we love nothing more than another low budget airline joining the melee… now when are you guys going to get creative with your routes and head to superfly continental stops like Moz, Malawi, Kenya, Tanz etc??? Don’t mean to be ungrateful . That said, Kulula does fly to Namibia and Zambia – both stunning places to visit. What we love about low-budget airlines is the fact that a… s the boys in green say: “Now anyone can fly”. Too right. So tell everyone in the kasi to the city that they can now also afford to fly with a little bit of planning and saving. Now we need creative accommodation solutions and carhire!!!! So we have been trying to get into Mango airlines for about 3 days since we were alerted of it’s launch just before the public found out – Tues 1 Nov at 7pm is the first time we managed to get all the way through the process. In order to judge just how juicy their prices are, we did a comparison study with Kulula, Nationwide, 1Time, SAA and SAA Airlink. You may think these other airlines are disadvantaged as their cheapest fairs were probably snapped up a while back – but for this exercise we will assume that the hype and huge numbers that have been visiting the Mango site in the last two days more than make up for that time difference. We requested the following: A round trip from Johannesburg to Cape Town for a weekend for two people (one must aim high), leaving at 6pm on a Friday evening after work and returning Sunday evening in time to have supper in Joburg. Here are the results – none of them were phenomenal but they may be because our the parameters of our request…: 1st place: MANGO R2396.00 all in. R1198 per person. 2nd place: 1time R3496.00 all in. R1748 pp. 3rd place: Kulula.com R3596 all in. R1798 pp. 4th place: Nationwide R3682.00 all in. R1841 pp. 5th place SAA and SA Airlink Both R5168.00 all in. R2584 pp. So there you have it – right now Mango has upped the game. Let’s see how the others respond. We’re sure they have something up their sleeves. Let us know your favourite airline in terms of quality. Happy Flying! ========================================= 9 February 2006 One of the rules about living a feng shui life in a megacity like Jozi is that you always have to get away at least once every 3 – 4 months to get a breather – even if that means going home to uMama in Giyani… It refreshes you...

Africa in Desperate Stress…
Thanks to Karabo for these touching words on HIV/Aids. Need we say more? I travel through these dark walls filled with red lining, My travel is accompanied by the gusts of blood, which flow within these walls. The depletion of my inner being is in the weakening of the body, which houses these walls, Exposed to the reflections of pain given of by the eyes of men, women and chil…dren who profess themselves as African on a daily basis through a simple quest for life. I experience the effects of globalisation on the lives of many through the continuous travels to and fro hospitals. I’ve been passed through needles of pain through the bleeding souls of many, I’ve seen desire, dreams and passion turn into stale fragments of broken mirrors reflecting politics and legislature governing the existence of the house which protects these walls I’ve made my home. Through the many travels I seem to spread through colour, ethnic groups and cultural barriers, I’ve broken homes, destroyed lives and have become the root of a war against humanity and the right to life. I too have life and only seek to live; yet I cannot find shelter in the acidic tears of generations portraying a civilization of man that seeks to find itself through the death of entire societies. I am HIV/AIDS& I am the present, the future& Copyright 2004 Aluta...
