Flying Within South Africa

November 27th, 2009

Most people think it’s not easy to book a flight in South Africa. The Airline industry in SA is so up to date flights can be booked using the internet or make reservations by phone.

There are 5 Airlines that operate within the country i.e.

· Mango
· 1Time
· South African Airways
· British Airways
· Kulula

Based on the research that I’ve conducted there are about 144 routes available locally. That is taking into consideration the possibilities of to and fro journeys from all the airports in the country. Some of these airports are;

· Johannesburg (JNB)
· Cape Town (CPT)
· Durban (DUR)
· Port Elizabeth (PLZ)
· George (GRJ)
· Bloemfontein (BFN)
· Kimberley (KIM)
· East London (ELS)
· Hoedspruit (HDS)
· Nelspruit (NLP)

Cape Town to Johannesburg

Booking a flight on Mango means you leave Cape Town for Johannesburg at 05.45 hrs and arrive at about 07.45 hrs . There is also 1Time, which leaves Cape Town at 06:45 and gets to Johannesburg at 08:45.

The South African Airways leaves at 06:00 and gets to OR Tambo at 08:00.This and British Airways are the most expensive flights in the country. Bitish Airways leaves Cape Town at 08.40 hrs and arrives at 10.40 hrs.

Most of the time Johannesburg is the centre of all the flights in South Africa. That is, most of the airlines fly via Johannesburg for most of the routes within the country. For example, the British Airways flies from Durban to Nelspruit via Johannesburg. In fact the British Airways is the one with most stops in Joburg. Most of the other flights offer a number of direct flights from city to city across South Africa.
