FlySafair has announced that its annual birthday sale will go live on Wednesday, 8 May at 9am.

As per tradition, for its tenth birthday, it will sell 50 000 seats at R10 each, inclusive of airport taxes, on selected domestic routes. The sale is based on luck, and will be available on its website via flysafair.co.za.

The airline says via a release that it will have an “online waiting room active to protect its website”, as more than a million South Africans are expected to visit the website tomorrow in hopes of securing a R10 ticket.

But this will be up to the luck of the draw, as the waiting room will randomly let only a few customers onto the site each minute.

FlySafair says a R10 fare finder will be available in the waiting room to assist customers in tracking down R10 tickets. Once on the website, customers will have a 10-minute session to book their flights.

FlySafair wishes everyone the best of luck during tomorrow’s birthday sale.

Customers should note that the FlySafair App will be available for normal bookings, for those not looking for a R10 ticket.
