LIFT Airline shared a video on their Facebook page a few days ago, which was a real high note for passengers aboard, as the airline was flying members of the Cape Town Opera company.

Passengers were treated to an impromptu performance, which seemed to LIFT the spirits of everyone aboard.

The company had just returned from a tour at the Roodepoort Theatre, delivering Mozart’s masterpiece, Le Nozze di Figaro to Gauteng audiences.

Cape Town Opera will next be performing at the Theatre On The Bay in October with The Elixir of Love. Bookings open soon.

It was smiles all round for these passengers!
