SAA&#8217;s executives say that unprofitable routes, inefficient planes and a bloated staff compliment are among the reasons for its financial woes. Now the state-owned carrier is on the hunt for an equity partner to acquire a stake in the airline. As SAA continues with yet another cost-cutting exercise designed to return the entity to profitability, Carte Blanche explores international low cost models that could provide the answers.<\/p>\n<p>Presenter: John Webb<br \/>\nProducer: John Webb<\/p>\n<h3>Home Hijacking<\/h3>\n<p>In an upwardly mobile residential complex on Gauteng\u2019s East Rand, suburban bliss has turned to living hell as cunning building hijackers have systematically muscled in to take over one unit after another.
