RwandAir is currently selling very cheap flights from Brussels to Cape Town. One highlight of this deal is the extremely generous baggage allowance of 2 x 23 kg. According to many reviews on the internet, RwandAir does have some flaws and is far from being the perfect airline or someone’s first choice, but this deal simply represents good value for money.
RwandAir’s main hub is located in Kigali. Their flight from Kigali to Cape Town stops once in Harare (Zimbabwe), but as far as we know, you won’t even have to leave the plane for that 45 minute stop.

To make your search for available dates even easier, we’ve compiled an availability calendar for trips of 6 – 13 days:
Information & Tips for Cape Town
Cape Town is the second largest – but touristically more relevant – city in South Africa and especially known for the Table Mountain and the beaches in the south. The city is well-connected to Europe and the rest of Africa by air travel.
Compared to Johannesburg, flights to Cape Town are pretty much always more expensive. A good price is €500 – €600 for a round trip ticket in economy class. Anything under €500 can be considered a good deal, occasionally you can find fares around €400, although without checked luggage for the most part.
The Best Time to Visit
The ideal time to visit Cape Town is during the summer from the end of January until the end of April; the hottest temperatures are from December to February, although it is very windy during this time.
From the Airport to the City
Due to high crime rates, it is not recommended taking a bus or other forms of public transport in the regions surrounding the airport. A taxi from the airport to the city centre costs about €18 to €25, an Uber is a good alternative and costs about half of that.
