Key point: FlySafair has the majority of the domestic market and operates the Harare route, so the Licensing Council will weigh FlySafair's response heavily — FlySafair is the most affected party. **Deadline to submit response: 10 June 2026** (per the forwarded DoT/Bilateral Affairs note). Original DoT request from BA@dot.gov.za, 5 June. ### Action Required Elmar to provide / approve FlySafair's formal position on Air Tanzania's 5th Freedom application, in time for the 10 June submission deadline. Regulatory — high priority. *** **Correct me:** open this ticket in MC and use the Life Manager feedback buttons (Not important / Noisy sender / Noisy subject / Always surface / Wrong class / Done), or Telegram Luci: 'ignore like MC-XXXX', 'always surface MC-XXXX', 'noisy sender MC-XXXX', 'noisy subject MC-XXXX', or 'wrong MC-XXXX'.
