South African Airways: Information from Answers.com (2060 words)
The airline resumed flights to New York City's JFK International Airport for the first time since the United States imposed economic sanctions on South Africa in 1986, and South African's planes were able to fly for the first time over Egypt and Sudan.
On 17 June 2006 South African Flight 322, a Boeing 737-800 underwent an attempted hijacking by a 21-year-old Zimbabwean, who took an air hostess hostage in attempt to enter the aircraft's cockpit and divert the plane to Maputo, Mozambique.
South African Airways feel that this incident has proven that their security on board is adequate and capable of handling such unexpected occurrences and that they are well prepared for handling any incidents which may occur during the World Cup 2010.
