A340 is a great plane...nice ride. Food was better than average, in my opinion. Expected more of a branded South African experience. Felt very generic, though most flight attendants were courteous and attentive.

Friendly cabin crew. The food was good. Aircraft was clean. Used ear piece left from the connecting flight for me. So I did not avail myself to the entertainment.

It was short SAA is an absolute disgrace. My wife and her father were bumped off a flight and given vouchers. But the vouchers can't be used online or over the phone, you HAVE to go to the airport to the ticket office to use them. They must be used on the same destination flight and you CANNOT buy a one way ticket. But the amount was only enough for one way. Absolute dog show of a company run by completely senseless idiots.

I was pleasantly suprised that with such a short flight a meal was included. The cheese/vegie sandwich tasted good and it was fresh! The check in clerk was very solicitious and went to fetch a wheelchair for the handicapped man in front of me. It took a long time to check into the flight upon my arrival at the airport and although I desperatly needed the bathroom, there appeared to be none available until I cleared immigration. It was nice of the check in clerk to get a wheelchair for the disabled man in front of me, but it would have been nice if someone else could have been called to then help check our que in.

The beef curry was really good and I was pleased that the overhead compartment was able to carry my regulation sized carryone without having to gate check it. I entered the airplane and was greeted by a strone urine scent. Unfortunately, this lasted until after the plane was cleaned at Dakar. Gross.

I really appreciated that the crew was very understanding and willing to make many water delieries during the flight. It was a pretty crowded flight and it is difficult to make people move so I could get out of my seat on a fairly regular basis for the bathroom.

Clean cabin, reasonably comfortable seat. Tons of extra security checks, totally unneeded. Staff are overly concerned with useless details (stow your blanket for takeoff, don't even think about ever using your phone until the door is opened, etc). Food was pretty lousy, as expected. Video system had tons of problems, old units.
