South Africa Workers Strike

Country forums / Africa / South Africa

We're flying in to Jo'burg in two days for safari in Kruger and Botswana. Wondering if we can anticipate any problems as a result of the ongoing public workers' strike. Are airports affected? Is public transportation available?

Have a look at this other thread, posted a few days ago: General Strike in S. Africa.

I flew into South Africa on Tuesday and out again on Saturday and both times, relief staff were working. If anything, they were more efficient than the usual lot!!!
