Award winning South African Airways (SAA) has boosted its London – Cape Town Service with the addition of a brand new aircraft, with improved facilities onboard.

The older A340-200 which served the London-Cape Town route has now been replaced with a new Airbus A330-200, according to reports.

The aircraft features fully-flat business class seats, and a new IFE system, as well as on-demand movies, television programmes and games.

Economy seats are especially designed to provide comfort and space, with a configuration of 2-4-2.

SAA provides a daily service between London Heathrow Terminal 1 and Cape Town.
