About SouthAfrica.TO

The trading names of the organisation are "SouthAfrica.TO" and "South Africa Travel Online". South Africa Travel Online's mission is to expose the cheapest airline flights and car rentals in, to or from South Africa; and to present users with a bullet-proof method of finding those tickets. Some work is required if you want to get on the cheapest flight or hire the cheapest vehicle, and we try make it easier for you to do that work.

The SouthAfrica.TO formula

The formula is simple - the way to make sure you're on the cheapest flight is by first establishing which airlines fly the route and secondly, to go to each of those airlines' websites and check what they are charging. So, the recipe on which SouthAfrica.TO is based is to list all the airlines operating on each flight route and to provide a link to their websites; thus allowing anybody to find the cheapest flight, without the help of an intermediary.

Search engine

For those who don't have the time to go through every airline's website, the site also incorporates Travelstart's search engine; which goes through all the airlines on its database.

Interactive

The site was started in March 2006 and has rapidly grown in popularity. Its 200,000 odd hits a month are in no small part due to its interactivity, with most of the pages allowing users to provide their own commentary, allowing frustrated and happy fliers the opportunity to vent their emotions.
