RCM Travel is ready and able to book your flights to South Africa, from any point of origin, which can be seamlessly added to your hotel payment plan. If you choose to book with us, your total flight price will vary depending on your city of origin. You can book your flights with AISA/RCM or you are well within your rights to book your flights yourself through other means.
Flying from the United States, there are only 4 cities with direct routes to South Africa, and they are New York, Newark, Washington DC, and Atlanta, with the flight duration times as follows:
NYC – 17 hrs (South African Airways)
Newark – 17 hrs (United Airlines)
Wash DC – 16.5 hrs (South African Airways)
Atlanta – 14.5 hrs (Delta Airlines & South African Airways)
At this time, South African Airways has suspended its flights to and from the United States, so for now, we’re dealing with United, from Newark, and Delta from Atlanta.
To arrive in Johannesburg on December 21st, the first day of our journey, you will have to depart on December 20th. If choosing to join us for the second and third legs of this journey in Cape Town on Dec 26, you will have to depart on Dec 25.
These are the flight packages we’re offering at this time for all three trip options, three from Newark, NJ on United and one from Atlanta on Delta. Group Air packages purchased through us allow you the option of paying a small deposit to book the flight, while paying off the balance with monthly payments, though in many instances, the Group Air rate will be significantly higher than if you purchased the flight outright, whether on your own or through RCM Travel.
RCM Travel is available to book your travel arrangements from your city of origin to and from Newark, NJ and Atlanta, GA or you can also make those arrangements yourself.
Flight Option 1 – 14 Days (Johannesburg-Cape Town-Durban) Dec 20 – Jan 3
Newark to Johannesburg(United) – Roundtrip (Dec 20 – Jan 3) – $1,432(taxes & fees included) – $100 deposit – SOLD OUT!!!
Group Air packages can only be purchased in groups of 10. We’ve booked two groups of 10 on this flight at this price, and the new updated group air price is now $2,438, while purchasing outright, on May 24, was priced at $1,769. As of June 14, this flight is now priced at $2,033. Delta had a direct flight from Atlanta to Johannesburg with these dates and the outright price on May 24 was listed at $1,643. The June 14 price is now listed at $1,656. The Group Air price through Delta for the same flight is over $2,200
Flight Option 1(b) – 14 Days (Johannesburg-Cape Town-Durban) Dec 20 – Jan 3
Atlanta to Johannesburg(Delta) – Roundtrip (Dec 20 – Jan 3) – $1,656 – this is the outright price. The Group Air price for this flight is over $2,200 with a $120 deposit. With the group rate being almost $600 higher than the outright price, we’re highly suggesting our patrons interested in this flight purchase outright.
Flight Option 2(b) – 8 days (Johannesburg – Cape Town) Dec 20 – Dec 29
Newark to Johannesburg(United) – Roundtrip (Dec 20 – Dec 29) – $1,981(taxes & fees included)
This is an outright price, not a group air price. The bookings for the first 8 days of our journey have been the lowest, as most people have booked the entire trip, or the last 8 days, so we’re not prepared to book a Group Air contract for this leg of the tour, as of yet. On May 24, Delta had a direct flight from Atlanta to Johannesburg with these dates listed at $1,528, now on June 14, that flight is listed at $1,572, but the Group Air rate is significantly higher, so again, we’re suggesting those interested in this flight purchase outright.
Flight Option 3 – 8 days (Cape Town – Durban) Dec 25 – Jan 3
Newark to Johannesburg(United) – Roundtrip (Dec 25 – Jan 3) – $1,360(taxes & fees included) – $100 deposit – SOLD OUT
We’ve booked one group of 10 at this rate, but the new updated Group Air rate is $2,438. On May 24, United had this flight listed for the outright price of $1,581, now on June14 the flight is listed at $1,640. still an $800+ difference from the Group Air rate, while Delta’s May 24th price of $1,673 has only gone up to $1,678 as of June 14th, so we’re suggesting those interested in either United or Delta options, purchase these flights outright. Even if Delta has a cheaper flight, it’s group air rates tend to be higher than United’s.
This United flight lands in Johannesburg at 6:45 pm and the only connecting flight to Cape Town we could make in time on the 26th is now sold out! Those booking this option will now spend a night in Johannesburg and catch the early morning connection to Cape Town.
There are many other flight options that are significantly cheaper on Ethiopian Air, KLM, Kenyan Air, Lufthansa, etc…, with layovers ranging from three hours to sixteen hours in cities from Nairobi, Frankfurt, Addis Ababa, Amsterdam, Instanbul, Zurich, etc…
If you choose to take any of those flights, RCM Travel is prepared to book those for you, or you can book them yourselves. We would also suggest leaving on the 19th or 24th to arrive in Johannesburg or Cape Town on the 21st or 26th, when our AISA activities begin.
We’ve put together a list of flights from various cities to Johannesburg & Cape Town that we consider great deals. All of the listed flights have short layovers under 6 hrs and allow you to leave your city on December 20th or 25th to arrive in Johannesburg on the 21st or Cape Town on the 26th. There are several deals out there from all over that are even cheaper than these listed but with much longer layovers that would require you to depart on the 19th to arrive on the 21st or the 24th to arrive on the 26th. Remember, these are not group air flights so they would have to be purchased in full outright upon booking. All of the listed flight prices for Johannesburg & Cape Town are current as of June 14, 2022, but we’ve left the flight prices posted from our May 24th update so you can compare how the flight prices have fluctuated. Some have gone up, slightly or drastically, while some have gone down slightly. We’ve also added comparable pricing for those interested in coming along for the first 8 days (Dec 20 to Dec 29, Johannesburg & Cape Town) of the journey.

The flights between the three cities within South Africa can not be added to the payment plan and must be paid in full upon booking. The prices for those flights, as of May 24, 2022, are as follows:
Johannesburg to Cape Town(Dec 26) – $100
Johannesburg to Cape Town(Dec 27) – $100
Cape Town to Durban(Dec 29) – $129
Durban to Johannesburg(Jan 3) – $93
The prices for these flights within South Africa are not guaranteed until booking and are subject to change, so we’re advising to book as soon as possible to lock in these rates.
For those of you who feel those flights are too long for your taste, you might consider going through Europe.
On my multiple trips to South Africa, I’ve preferred to fly with a layover in Europe, then proceed to South Africa. My flights from Chicago have been always around 8 hrs to a variety of European cities, have a layover anywhere between 8 and 18 hrs, then proceed on my 10 hr flight from Europe to South Africa. These routes are nice for making two trips out of one, as I’ve been able to go into the city and do the tourist attractions, sightseeing, shopping, etc… in those European cities before going back to the airport for my flight to South Africa, but those who do choose to proceed this way must know this will take an extra day of your trip, so you should plan to leave the U.S on December 19th or December 24th.
Robyn Carter of RCM Travel will be available to assist you in booking your flight package with the best and most up to date pricing available.
