Nice detailed explanation..😊
Excellent presentation
Glad you liked it🙏
I would love to try to climb Jacob's Ladder. 699 steps up to Ladder Hill then to Half Tree Hollow at the top. but I will probably never get there!
Hope you still manage to visit to St Helena, if not enjoy watching our videos to bring you a little closer❤️
How is aviation fuel supplied to the airport?
Im not sure, by ship?
Let's be brutally honest here. The biggest reason flights are so outrageously expensive is Airlink as the sole carrier to St Helena. Cape Town to Nelspruit is a flight of just over 2 hours and not Nelspruit is not a challenging airport at all. That 2 hour flight's cost? More expensive than a 10 hour flight to Europe. Fortunately another airline recently started on the route and prices went down considerably.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not negating the challenges nor the extra expenses involved and would expect to pay more, but flying to St Helena is extortion! Nothing short.
One mors thing, they can and have landed Boeing 737's there, so all that is needed is another carrier to do it. That is of course if Airlink hasn't secured an exclusive rights deal, which they probably did.
You are absolutely right. As the only airline flying they can off course ask whatever price they like. Maybe something the St Helena Gov should negotiate with Airlink
how much is the avg round trip ticket cost to ST. H? And sorry, I thought you said there was asnother airline who started the route? Why do you then at the end state they just 'need another carrier to do it' and that 'airlink probably secured exclusive rights'? confused as to the seemingly contradictory statement? thank u!
@@KuostA Only Airlink flies to St Helena, there is no other operator. Prices are around 600-700 Euro for a return ticket but it varies by date.
@@DiscoverWithTwo how come that other commenter stated that there was another airline who started that route as well then?
@@KuostA There is no other airline at the moment. In the past Comair did try to operate the flights with a B737 but it was not successful.
