SAA’s airfreight division said the lounge was specially designed for ensuring your four-egged friend experiences a stress-free ­journey.

Tleli Makhetha, SAA Cargo’s general manager, said the lounge also minimised any environmental factors that were likely to cause distress.

“This milestone is a welcome service enhancement and demonstrates our commitment to improving the handling of domestic pets,” Makhetha said.

“We pride ourselves in providing a value-added service in an effort to cater for the needs of our customers,” said Makhetha.

“The hands-on approach highlights our resolve to care about the welfare of live animals that are processed through SAA Cargo’s facilities,” said Makhetha.
