I think the ACC leg is a pre-cursor to their applied for rights to go to South Africa. SAA stops at ACC as well on the way to the US, so it would be natural that when they get the rights to go to JNB, that will be the continuation of the JFK - ACC flight.

I don't think that they will go 2x daily in to JNB until they fully see how the ATL-JNB goes first.
