The carrier, based at Johannesburg, had its operating licence suspended “indefinitely” by the South African Civil Aviation Authority on Sunday.
In a statement, Comair said: “This is despite the airline working through the night to provide documentation the SACAA had requested following a review of certain policies, systems and procedures.”
It added: “Comair was advised of a 24-hours suspension to its licence on the morning of 12 March. That afternoon the CAA requested additional information, which Comair provided overnight and into the early morning of 13 March 2022.”
