Quite a few airlines got stung by buying fuel contracts at the $100 plus level. These airlines have failed to benefit so far from current low prices. The exception, is 1Time. I flew 1Time from Durban last month and their prices do appear to undercut Kulula by about R100 - quite consistently.
Future hedging is likely to be tricky as currencies and oil prices oscillate - apparently randomly.

Awesome, so glad they got it right, 1time offer a more spacious and friendly flight than the other low-cost carriers (unless you're into humour then Kulula is better).
What I'm surprised about is that their share price hardly reacted to the news (probably because it's so thinly traded), but at 45c it's a steal.
I don't really see why more people don't fly 1time. They are a much better airline IMO
