How To Find Cheap Flights In South Africa

January 27th, 2010

Air travel in South Africa is no longer dominated by South African Airways, maybe at one time it was but not anymore. Over the years however three other airlines have emerged offering flights within the country and have leveled the playing field so to speak. Them entering the market meant increased competition amongst the airlines. When the airline are competin for passengers the fares are guaranteed to come down.

So your other options now besides SAA are ‘1 Time, Mango and Kulula Airlines. You might not have been aware of it but making a booking for a flight online costs much less than making a reservation by telephone or other means. So if you want a discounted rate then you can always book your tickets over the net.

Depending on the time of the year and the day of the week the prices of air tickets will always vary. So you will find that traveling during the week days of Monday and Thursday will mean lower or discounted fares. The other times are referered to as peak periods where most people want to travel and passengers end up being the ones competing for seats..

Most airlines have since developed what is called an e-ticket. When airlines use tickets they do not use anything on printing, staionery and people; so the airline can afford to quote you a lower fare and e-tickets are convenient because they do not get lost.

So you can access the sites of these airlines directly and compare prices and departure times but this will no doubt take you a lot of time. There are sites that have collective information on all the flights within and around the country. You just fill the relevant details concerning your destination and dates and it will give you a list of available flights during that period.
