For those on a budget, there are currently indirect flights from LGW to JNB available with Rwandair for under £400 return. They are a new airline with new aircrafts and fly via Rwanda (flight total around 15hr).

There are also MANY options both around the Easter holidays and during to fly via European locations such as Zurich, Paris and Frankfurt. These flights can be bought from £500 and many of the flight times are under 14 hours - this seems like the best option if you're not worried about a change. It only adds two or so hours onto the journey and may well save £100s!

As of 03/08, Virgin flights range from £650-£900 return Heathrow-Johannesburg. Price depends on dates; flying on a Friday/Saturday is a lot more expensive. Please let us know if you are interested.

Please note, if you are thinking of doing Cape Town, only BA fly directly. We will be getting internal flights there and flying back indirectly with Emirates via Dubai. Thomas Cook also fly directly but their last flight out is around 23rd March and there is no return flight after the wedding.
