In the meantime, the airline said the Air Services Licensing Council (ASLC), which falls under the Department of Transport, would allow it to fly its current routes in South Africa without interruption.
“FlySafair is currently considering whether it will change its shareholding or take legal action against the ASLC's ruling,” said chief marketing officer Kirby Gordon.
"In its latest communication, the ASLC has given FlySafair 12 months to align with this interpretation and will require monthly progress reports. However, the council has not provided specific guidance on what compliance should look like beyond its original ruling," he added.
