The airline has been battling financially, only returning to the skies in December 2020, as aviation group Comair (which runs kulula) adopted a business rescue plan which saw it get a cash injection of R500 million in September.

Then chief executive officer (CEO) Wrenelle Stander said the company reported a loss of R564 million for the first half of 2020 due to the Covid-19 restrictions.

Comair Rescue Consortium’s Glenn Orsmond said the return to the skies was an important moment for the group, its employees and for their customers.
