This Reuters press report, released for publication on November 12, 1994, was the first authoritative confirmation that a 23-strong South African delegation – headed by foreign minister Pik Botha – had been booked to travel on Pan Am Flight 103 on December 21, 1988 which crashed at Lockerbie, Scotland. The delegation cancelled the booking and only six of the South African party continued their journey on the earlier Pan Am Flight 101.

The fair use rationale is that a senior Reuters executive provided this press release in response to a request from a British Wikipedian (Patrick Haseldine) who, in the mid-1990s, was researching South Africa's possible involvement in the Lockerbie bombing, which resulted in the death of United Nations Commissioner for Namibia, Bernt Carlsson, and 269 others.PJHaseldine (talk) 15:20, 28 May 2008 (UTC)
