Velvet Sky is offering the cheapest flight to Johannesburg in this survey of Friday flight prices (higher than the cheapest, but more realistic departure times), followed by Kulula to Lanseria (probably because of the price war with, Kulula's flights to Lanseria are cheaper than to O.R. Tambo International). First Car Rental was offering car rentals for just R191/day.

Intercape's bus trip from Cape Town to Johannesburg is now the cheapest it's been in a year (the price is down by about R200!). As far as bus trips go in South Africa, Intercape is one of the best rides you're going to find - so if you were thinking of taking the bus from Cape Town to Johannesburg get in touch with them and ask for a quote on their Mainliner (the Sleepliner is a little more luxurious but it's pricier).

If you're a little unsure of how we put together the prices below, this is how it works: we surveyed one-way flights, coach trips and train trips from Cape Town to Johannesburg that leave Cape Town between 17h29 and 20h31 on Friday the 5th of August 2011. These prices are merely snapshots, and are in no way guaranteed by us - there is a greater chance they have changed than usual, as we had to delay the distribution of this newsletter.
