African Skyline Introduction flight - Captain Abdul
My son is still awaiting his video to show friends & family from 10.02.2026. This is a major disappointment as he is still young and wants to show his family, and friends. This was his dream and now cant show it. (I never received my photo & video that we PAID for). Have requested a refund but they just ignore you. Do NOT order any additional items, you do not receive them. The flight and add on are NOT cheap for the time given. Regards Lesley

African Skyline Charters - Abdul Hameed Chavoos - Rude and dishonest in his conduct
Worst experience ever -Abdul Hameed Chavoos Waseela is great thank you for your warm welcome and my condolences that you have to work with such a rude and condescending man. We did the online course before the flight. The experience up to here was good and my son was excited for the flight. We were told to ensure we did not arrive late. Here are my concerns expressed to Ahmed after our trip. I advised him that I wanted to note them to him directly and not on social media. My attempt was to gain clarify. After more than 32 follow ups over 12 months via whatsapp and email we have to date not received the video which we paid for neither our refund back of the R300 paid additional for the video. I have now given up trying but would like to help you avoid having the same experience. Please contact any other flight school in that area, there are many and I am sure you will have much better service than what Ahmed gives. Pity as his willingness to share his knowledge is one thing that I complimented on the day and on our correspondence, but he is extremely rude and arrogant. - 01 April 2025 - The day before our flight it rained and I asked if our booking was still ok - I was advised that aviation weather was being checked, no update by 19h49 and I followed up again. I was then told that a further update would be given by 07h00 the next morning. - 02 April - 07h20 I followed up if the booking was on for today but given the open skies we proceeded to the venue. No reply was received until 08h00 - Booking made for 09h00 - We were advised to arrive 30min before our flight. - Knowing we had to navigate Gillooleys I got up at 6h00 to get ready so that we could leave 7h30. On the day Gillooleys was not too jammed and we arrived 08h13. - We were advised to wait at Harvard and that you would see us at 09h00 (which was not as per your own arrangements) - 09h01 you called us to advise you are running late and that you would see us at 9h45. I advised at the time that this was not ok as I had client meetings to get to after 11h00 - You then advised that you will be there by 9h15 (bearing in mind that we were told to be there by 08h30 and fly by 09h00) - At 09h42 I sent another message to find out where you are - You arrived 10h02 - My son took off 11h13 and landed 11h29 – I know the time as I sent a message to my customer to cancel my 1st meeting which I was not able to make due to you arriving late. - I know the landing time as the other lady that was booked to fly after us whose name I have removed for the purpose of posting my notes on Hello Peter commented – are they back already? And I looked at the time. - This equates to a 16min flight (from take off to landing) - When I asked you why the flight was so short you advised it was 40min from start up to landing – this may be the case for your normal process but it was not the case for my son. - You advised that I would see this from the video - to date we have not received this video or our R300 refund paid for this video. - When you arrived back you fuelled the airplane before you took off with the other lady. If you are not able to make it to the office early then don’t schedule early flights. It would have been far more convenient for us not to have gotten up at the crack of dawn and battle peak traffic to get to a venue only to have to wait 1 hour 30 minutes. On the positive side you are very thorough in your explanations, you make it very easy to understand and you are very patient with new learners. To date we have not received our R300 paid for the video which we have not received. I have to wonder if the reason that he did not send us the video was that it may prove that the flight was not as long as he said it was. Irrespective we have asked time upon time for our refund which Abdul ignores. He has chosen to keep the money despite not sending us the video. This is dishonest conduct not to speak of the rude and arrogant way in which he responded initially via telephone. extract from message to Abdul: Thank you for your call 10 April 13h56 albeit that the purpose of your call seemed to be to vent and not for us to gain a mutual understanding.

African Skylines.....No refund after failure to produce goods paid for in advance.
I was gifted a voucher for a 1 hour flight training. This went well. However, I paid an extra R400 for a photograph and video of the event. I have not received my video after months of requests to both the owner (Abdul) and his wife (Waseela). No refund was forthcoming either.

Extremely Disappointing & Borderline ****
I purchased a Durban voucher in December and reached out in March to make a booking. I was told the aircraft had an accident and that flights were temporarily suspended (which I completely understood). However, from that point forward, my emails went unanswered for days, and when I clearly stated “I’m in Durban”, I was ignored. Eventually (after still getting no response), I felt forced to make arrangements to travel to Johannesburg, only for them to later claim it was my choice, which is completely false. I contacted them multiple times requesting a phone number (also ignored), and not once did they show any empathy, accountability, or offer even a small gesture of goodwill for all the confusion and inconvenience. After sending a detailed and polite email to clarify everything (with evidence and screenshots), I still received no response. Based on my experience and reading many other similar complaints, it’s clear this company has a pattern of poor communication, misleading vouchers and no accountability once they receive payment. Avoid them at all costs cause you might end up paying for an “experience” that never happens.

Pathetic ****mers
If there was a zero star rating I would give that. Do not make the mistake of purchasing this offer from Abdul and Waseela Chavoos. It is January 2025 and I have still not received any of my items that I ordered and paid for in December 2022 when I did my flight experience. I haven't even received my photos and videos that I paid for. When I reached out I was told that the company was sold to a Saudi company that has since absconded but yet the company still operates and is still selling the same package today on Hyperli and the details are exactly the same as Abdul and Waseela Chavoos. There are 13 1 star ratings for this couple and their company on Hello Peter. So I guess I am not the only one that that has been taken for a ride. I will be opening a case of theft against them

African Skyline BAD SERVICE!!! Total NO NO
After booking a flight session through Daddy Deals and arranging for a photo and video package with African Skyline scheduled for December 9th, it has come to my attention that despite the elapsed time since February 26th, the video has yet to be received. Following an email inquiry, which also involved Daddy Deals, I received a WhatsApp response from the head pilot, Abdul, stating, ''Since your complaint is to daddys deals- whom you did not purchase a video from- i suggest you get the feedback from them. We are past trying to get compliments from Your kind… i think its an indian thing. However, i will grt in touch with kzn and provide feedback. Id really like to watch the video myself to see what your experience was like. The subsequent message expressed a reluctance to pursue compliments, citing a potential cultural misunderstanding, and highlighted a willingness to contact the relevant party for feedback. The lack of video delivery has left me thoroughly disappointed with the service provided, prompting me to suggest that Daddy Deals should implement follow-up procedures with their service providers to ensure a more satisfactory customer experience in the future.

Still have not received items paid for.
(02/08/24) It is now more than a year later of trying to get the stuff we had paid for out of Abdul. The Photo, Video and Certificate. We have tried over and over phone calls, messages you name it. Simply to be ignored. We would so very much love to have the memorabilia we had paid for unless it is not something you even have. If not a refund on the items will be appreciated. So very disappointed as this was a very special day and we can not even receive the items we had paid for. (Last review was 7 months ago as seen below) Last year November 23rd 2022 I had booked this once in a life time experience for my Fiancés 30th birthday gift. A dream he had always had to fly. We had paid and booked for the flight along with the framed photograph and video also a certificate. To this day we have not received our video, photograph or the certificate. With constant communication over these 7 months from our side just to be ignored and denied what we had paid for (not cheap either). African Skyline (Abdul!) please give us what is owed to us!
