Cape Town flying high
Posted: Mon April 28, 2008 01:56 PM UTC
Hello!

Anybody knows what would be the best bet when it comes to choosing a flightcompany to get to cape town from europe (I am from Brussels but am prepared to start from a neignbouring country). When in South America last year, a friend of mine discovered real cheap flights, (Flights that were only one third of the regular price), on a site that sells only throuh internet.

Anyone an idea?

Also I would if possible like to combine countries like Tanzania and South Africa. Only, sometimes aircompanies offer single flights that are almost the price of a full ticket, which would not make this "combi" possible...

Love from Belgium

South African Airways sometimes have add on fares which are relatively cheaper. I flew from London to CPT and then on to Dar via JNB and caught the ferry to Zanzibar. the add on to Dar was not that expensive but you have to come back to JNB or CPT to catch your flight back. you can check their website.
Kenyan Airways code share with KLM, so you probably could do ams to dar and then on cpt and then back directly from cpt to ams.

Not sure about Tanzania, but KLM is good, BA is expensive, Qatar has recently been pretty good (though you have to go through Doha), I think Lufthansa has added a new flight a week, and Emirates is also pretty good... I think KLM or Qatar are the best though

No idea about the internet site, sorry!
