How to Get to Southern Africa From All the Major Continents




No matter which part of the world you are from, there is bound to be a fairly easy way for you to get to the part of Africa you wish to travel. You can fly from most major ports into South Africa with SAA. From there, you can get a connecting route to almost anywhere in Africa you please.





Other major airlines from Europe, Australia and America frequently have flights to South Africa. British Airways, Lufthansa and KLM are of the most frequent European Airlines. Emirates Airline has regular flights from the East.





The Emirates flight from Johannesburg via Dubai to London is sometimes a cheaper option than any of the direct airlines. Even though Australia is literally next to South Africa many times the Johannesburg, Dubai connections to Australia are the cheapest.





If there are no direct flights from your own country to the African country you are visiting, then you will need to get a connecting flight from OR Tambo airport in Johannesburg.





There are many internal flights available in Africa via the national airlines of the various countries.





There are a few South African airlines which offer cheap flights between the major cities of Durban, Cape Town and Johannesburg.





Their air crafts are most probably the ugliest on the tarmac but they get the job done and you won't ever get onto the wrong plane. Mango is very distinctly orange, the entire plane is orange. 1Time looks like a dirty red spot and Kulula a bright dark green overgrown bug.
