South African Airways to sell minority stakes in FFP and technical divisions

South African Airways reportedly issued a tender to sell a minority stake in its Voyager frequent flyer programme and technical divisions (Bloomberg/Sapa, 10-Feb-2010).

DA added the carrier is also considering selling stakes in its catering and air freight divisions.
