Review of South African AIrways flight from Johannesburg to Cape Town in Business

The day before I arrived from Sydney on Qantas. I was waited for a group of friends who were flying from Paris. We were spending 10 days in South Africa and our first stop was Capetown, one of my most favourite city in the world. If I could, I'd move there !
After a short run between the International and the domestic terminal at O.R. Tambo Johannesburg International Airport, the 11 of us were in the boarding area of the terminal. We took the bus to our Airbus 340-600 ZS-SNF.

Our Airbus' neighbour is a Lufthansa Boeing 747-400.

We are walking towards the plane to board.

The are still refueling the aircraft.

The Business Class cabin.

No welcome drinks, the crew doesn't care, no welcome wishes, only the chief purser is nice and pleasant. The rest of the crew will forget to serve us bread, the service is poorly conducted. I flew on SAA many times and I can say that I am very much disappointed by this flight.
After take off I get comfortable and start to play with my seat.

The tail camera is offering a stunning view of our Airbus inflight.

No movies or any other type of entertainment apart from the Airshow and some advice to make our flight enjoyable.

Drinks are served before the meal, I will ask for some water and a lemonade.

Lunch is served quickly, a tiny salad, a hot entree, a choice between fish or lamb, I chose the fish.

Walk around the cabin, view on the left wing.

The toilets and the throne with a view !

We are approaching Capetown, we go over the sea and turn back towards the airport.

We arrived in Capetown and we are taken to the terminal with the help of a bus.
