Mango airlines is a low
cost airline operating in South Africa (the other 3 low cost carriers in
South Africa are 1time Airline, Kulula Airline and Nationwide Airlines).
It is a subsidiary of South African Airways (SAA) . Mango's first flight
was on the 15th November 2006, from Johannesburg to Cape Town.
Mango Airlines' holding company, South African Airways (SAA), was
bleeding business to the other low-cost carriers (Kulula.com & 1time
airline) and therefore decided to set up its own low-cost carrier. South
African Airways initially code-named Mango Airlines TULCA - an acronym
for "The Ultimate Low Cost Airline.
