She wishes she had another airline to easily switch to. Only two airlines fly direct flights to where she's currently working at, Delta and South African Airlines. And while Delta is always a sell out, at least it possible to get a seat a few days before leaving. That doesn't seem to be the case with SAA. SAA is also a non-stop from New York, while Delta has a stop in Drakar, Senegal. They both go through Senegal on the way back.
