JOHANNESBURG - The SAA Pilots Association and National Transport Movement have reached an agreement with the carrier.
The deal was reached in the early hours of Saturday morning.
It means pilots will take to the skies again as talks continue to improve working conditions.
Pilots are demanding a 15.7 percent salary increase with SAA offering an 8 percent hike.
The strike that began on Thursday has caused major disruptions.
SAA says it only managed to operate 39 out of 47 planned flights.
They were to Cape Town, Durban, Gqeberha, Mauritius and Windhoek.
