South Africa

Cheap flights to Johannesburg

Johannesburg is South Africa's largest city and its business hub, with a creative energy all of its own. The Apartheid Museum and Constitution Hill give powerful insight into the country's history, while Vilakazi Street in Soweto is home to the former house of Nelson Mandela. Areas such as Maboneng and Rosebank are known for galleries, markets and restaurants.

Direct overnight flights from London take around eleven hours, and with a time difference of only one or two hours, you arrive ready to go. Johannesburg is also a gateway to Kruger National Park and its safari lodges. To find cheap flights to Johannesburg, book early for school holidays and compare direct and one-stop fares.
