Flights, Flight Specials and Departure Tax

We are not specialists in this field right. But we will post a good deal if we hear about it - if you know about one, let us know!
In South Africa it works like this - the closer you book to the departure time the more expensive it gets.
2ndly, a lot of budget airlines have folded, so only book newish airlines very shortly before you fly.

Current SA Airlines:

Travel agents can't and don't book the budget flights! If you want this price you have to do it yourself. I 've given you the information. Whether you want to use it is up to you. Don't expect me to book you on numerous flights and hold your hand - you can do it all online yourself! And NO, we don't book flights.....I really can't understand why I when I have taken a lot of time to put info on, I get calls at 10pm at night wanting to book flights, wanting the Saudi Embassy's bank account number, wanting to know what the school terms are.... and so on & so on....YES, this does happen every 2nd day!

Kulula - Main Competition to SAA - BA sub - www.kulula.com
Jo'burg to Cape Town, Durban, George,
Port Elizabeth, Mauritius, Ndola, Harare, George, Windhoek, Lusaka. Then also Durban to Cape Town. Very very important is that if you want to leave from Randburg for Cape Town or vice versa that you can fly from Lanseria (to Durban and Cape Town). Gautrain runs to/from OR Tambo as per http://gautrain.co.za/, just after 5h00 - 21h00. Lanseria is the place to fly from if you stay in the randburg area, or at the Misty Hills Hotel - then it is about 8 km's away with no traffic!!You can book online from overseas, but have to send a fax. They have a much faster boarding and arriving turnover. At ORT the 1st person walks out about 30 min after landing. At Lanseria it could be 10 minutes.
