1Time’s story began with five entrepreneurial men; between them they had a vast of experience and a wealth of knowledge within the aviation industry. With South Africa’s domestic market carrying 7.5 million passengers each year the idea was to launch a low fare airline into the market. 1Time opened for ticket sales on Thursday 22 January 2004 and commenced their first flight from Johannesburg to Cape Town on the 25 February 2004. Since launching 1Time has grown expanding their network of flights within South Africa.
The name 1time is a reflection of the South African soul of the company. In South Africa, the phrase "one time!" is a colloquialism meaning "for real!".
