Air France schedules to and from South Africa not affected

Air France schedules have not been affected by these new regulations, and will continue to operate 3 times per week between Johannesburg and Paris.

Mandatory Covid tests before travelling from South Africa

KLM reminded passengers flying from South Africa who are travelling to the Netherlands, or transiting in the Netherlands, that they are now required to produce a negative rapid antigen test which must be taken four hours prior to departure. This antigen test can be taken at Cape Town International or O.R Tambo International airports where facilities are being arranged.

This antigen test is in addition to the mandatory negative PCR test valid 72h prior arrival in the Netherlands and the completed and signed Negative Test Declaration.
