Book your South Africa plane tickets and enjoy a diverse, easy-to-reach destination. You'll find a plethora of flights to South Africa from UK airports, with several daily direct flights to [Johannesburg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheap-Flights-To-Johannesburg.d6051471.Travel-Guide-Flights) and [Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheap-Flights-To-Cape-Town.d6046820.Travel-Guide-Flights) from London. One-stop flights to South Africa usually involve a quick connection in European hubs, making it easy to depart from most regional UK airports. As the country lies in the same time zone as the UK, you won't lose any precious holiday time to jet lag when you arrive. Located in the southern hemisphere, South Africa's summer coincides with the UK's winter, making it an ideal destination if you crave sun and warmth in the cooler months. When you fly to South Africa, you'll encounter a multitude of amazing things to see and do. Witness the Big Five on a safari in the [Kruger National Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kruger-National-Park-South-Africa.d6060247.Attraction), relax on the white sands of [Boulders Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Boulders-Beach-Cape-Peninsula.d6066759.Attraction) and get up close to elephants in [Knysna](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Knysna.dx601501). With its favourable exchange rate, South Africa is an affordable destination, allowing you to treat yourself to [luxury lodges](https://www.expedia.co.uk/South-Africa-Lodges.d165-aaLodges.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) and exceptional cuisine without stretching your budget. ### When to book flights to South Africa? For a warm beach escape, book flights to South Africa between November and February, as this period is summer in the southern hemisphere. In cities like [Cape Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cape-Town.dx6046820) and [Johannesburg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Johannesburg.dx6051471), temperatures average a pleasant 25°C, making it ideal for a sunny getaway in the middle of winter. If you want to embark on a [safari](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-South-Africa-Safari-Hotel.0-0-d165-tsafarihotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations), book South Africa plane tickets for the drier season, which runs from May to September. The sparse vegetation and scarcity of water at this time of year make it easier to spot wildlife in reserves such as [Kruger National Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kruger-National-Park-South-Africa.d6060247.Attraction). ### How to find cheap flights to South Africa For some of the cheapest South Africa flights, be flexible with your travel dates and you could score great flight deals from £422\*. Ticket prices depend on how busy a given flight is. By checking different dates, you may find a less busy, and therefore cheaper, airfare. Expedia's search wizard helps you find cheap South Africa tickets with the click of a button. It lets you set a maximum budget and gives you the option to sort search results by price, so you can easily pinpoint the most suitable flights for you. Hand luggage-only fares are another way to reduce airfare costs if you're happy to travel light. Indirect flights are often cheaper than direct flights to South Africa. These tickets have a slightly longer journey time and involve a quick connection in European airports like Paris or Amsterdam. Don't forget to compare prices from [Heathrow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/lhr/flights-from-heathrow-airport) and [Gatwick](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/lgw/flights-from-gatwick-airport) if you're departing from London. You can easily do this by selecting the 'LON-All Airports' option when using the search wizard. ### Flights to South Africa from UK airports You'll encounter a multitude of flights to South Africa from UK airports.
