Air travel in South Africa is no longer dominated by South African Airways, maybe at one time it was but not anymore. Over the years however three other airlines have emerged offering flights within the country and have leveled the playing field so to speak. Them entering the market meant increased competition amongst the airlines. In the airline industry this basically translates to lower airfares.

So apart from SAA you can now fly on ‘1 Time, Mango and Kulula Airlines. You might not have been aware of it but making a booking for a flight online costs much less than making a reservation by telephone or other means. If you are interested in a lower airfare then make sure you book your tickets over the internet.

The prices of airfares are not fixed; they will vary according to the time of the year and the days of the week. So you will find that traveling during the week days of Monday and Thursday will mean lower or discounted fares. This is because the other times are considered peak periods of travel were most people want to be on the move. So passengers are now the ones competing for seat during these times making the prices higher ..

There is now what is referred to as an e-ticket. When airlines use tickets they do not use anything on printing, staionery and people; using them will get you a lower rate on your airfare and the nice thing about them is that they do not get lost.

So you can access the sites of these airlines directly and compare prices and departure times but this will no doubt take you a lot of time. There are sites that have collective information on all the flights within and around the country. All you have to do is fill in a few details on a form andAdd a New Article » MyArticleNetwork.com within no time you will have your list.
