Want to sample the world's last semi-legal drug? The Johannesburg Wine Show is on from the 4th to the 6th June at the Coca Cola Dome. Here's your flights, accommodation & car rentals.

Flights from Cape Town to Johannesburg

Mango Airlines, at R549, offered the cheapest flight from Cape Town to Johannesburg, and Shosholoza Meyl the cheapest train/bus. Mango is even cheaper than Intercape or Greyhound buses. Mango's R549 is also the cheapest Cape Town to Gauteng flight price we've surveyed since 9 Oct 2009 when Interlink Airline were cheapest (note that prices in these surveys are often fairly high, as we only check airline prices on late Friday afternoon).

Martha Stewart in South Africa

It was interesting listening to Martha Stewart on MNET's Full Access program, being interviewed by Mark Bayly at the Cape Town International Convention Centre (she was there for the Design Indaba, her first trip to South Africa). However, I didn't realise that she was also an avid blogger - here's her write up on her journey to South Africa. Martha travelled to SA with Susan Magrino and Kevin Sharkey, on a 15 hour SAA flight. Susan was dissapointed to discover that whilst SAA allows the use of full size laptops, they don't allow people to catch up with their emails on their Blackberries. Martha sensibly refrains from drinking alcoholic beverages on flights. After landing in Johannesburg, Martha and friends (including Ravi Naidoo, founder of Design Indaba ) took a Federal Air flight to the Kruger National Park, where they were staying at Singita.
