jumper03 0 #1 January 5, 2006 For those of you who have made the trip - which airport do you recommend? Jo-berg, Durban or Cape Town? I know American flys the route, anyone else I'm not thinking of right now? Lufthansa maybe? Thanks for any help. I need to go see the rocks pretty bad...if I wait until the time is right, I'll never make it - so fuck it...it's time to go!

Flygurl 0 #2 January 5, 2006 I've flown into Johannesburg and had no problems. British Airways, KLM, and United are a few additional options.

piisfish 140 #3 January 5, 2006 have you seen Soulflyers2 lately ? most major european airline will bring you there. BA will fly you from Phoenix with just a stop in London.scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrewGPM 0 #4 January 5, 2006 We flew South African Air a few years ago. They were great, and highly recommended by our South African friends. We had a chicago to atlanta, the direct to Cape Town. But now it looks like they only fly direct to Jo-berg. Right now it's $1,500 to Jo-berg. For an extra $50 I change planes in Jo-berg and go to Cape Town. http://ww1.flysaa.com/saa_home.html Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chrissay 0 #11 January 6, 2006 When I went a few years ago I went on an affiliate of Delta Airlines, unfortunately I don't remember the name of the actual airline. I flew from Detroit to ATL, then ATL to J-berg for a brief stop--we didn't even get off the plane, then we went onto Capetown. 23 hours later, I was there!

If your rocks are in the Western Cape, you may want to pick an airline that flys (via Joburg) on to Cape Town. Generally, fly in to Joburg and you can get a local flight to anywhere you need from the same airport.
