On the US State Dept site there is mention of this as of June 4 and the strike warning expires in August.

It mentioned that airline services were not expected to be part of the strike but that there could be customs delays.

Thanks for the info.

If the strike is not over by the 23rd, I'll find out through experience about customs delays.

I arrive the day before you do. Delays are better than cancellations.

Hello,

Well, I'm leaving tomorrow evening and will be in JNB on Friday...touching wood that this won't cause any major delays.

Cheers,
Julian
