Johannesburg

British Airways currently offers tickets to South Africa from several airports in Germany and from Vienna, starting at €399. The offer is particularly interesting because it includes 23 kg of luggage. In addition to Johannesburg, two other destinations are also possible: Durban and Port Elizabeth.

British Airways offers relatively generous rebooking rules that have recently been extended. All bookings can be canceled free of charge. You will then receive a voucher for the amount of the flight price, which can be redeemed until September 2023. In the case of a (voluntary) rebooking, however, the fare difference applies. More on this here on the BA website.

You can easily book the flights using the following search form. Simply select the desired departure airport, travel destination, and travel dates.
