In other news the Suncoast Hotel & Towers set a record for the most expensive night at a hotel in Durban we have yet recorded (R1302).

Mango Airlines is currently offering the cheapest flight prices from Cape Town to Johannesburg and Tempest Car Hire the cheapest car rentals.

17 May 2008	Time to start preperations for the June long weekend. Kulula is cheapest on the Durban-Johannesburg route, Tempest (as usual) have offered the cheapest car rental at O.R. Tambo International Airport, SA Roadlink offers the cheapest coach trip and the Road Lodge Hotel offers the cheapest night's accommodation.
10 May 2008	We looked at the costs of travelling from Cape Town to Durban: Mango Airlines offers the cheapest flight City to City offers the cheapest bus trip Tempest Car Hire offers the cheapest car rental Road Lodge offers the cheapest hotel room
3 May 2008	We surveyed flights from Johannesburg to Cape Town, and Mango Airlines were cheapest. For the first time the Intercape coachline offered the cheapest coach trip, and as usual Tempest Car Hire offered the cheapest car rental and the Road Lodge the cheapest accommodation.
19 Apr 2008	British Airways is a new South African low cost carrier - they've been cheapest in 3 out of our last 5 surveys. Prices of bus trips have gone up as have car rentals (slightly) but hotel accommodation is down (16th May is a good time to book a night in Cape Town).
12 Apr 2008	BA is cheapest. We looked at flights from Cape Town to Johannesburg and once again BA (British Airways) are the cheapest at R550 for a one-way flight. So much for what Comair is saying about the low prices of Mango and SAA. We also tested the Mango promotional code and it was still giving 15% off.
12 Apr 2008	Forget 1time or Mango Airlines, British Airways are cheapest from Cape Town to Johannesburg. In a year of 9 surveys, British Airways have most often come up trumps.
5 Apr 2008	1time airline you beauty! First time they've topped our surveys since December 2007. Cheapest car rental is with Tempest and cheapest accommodation in Johannesburg is with Road Lodge. Cheapest bus trip from Durban to Johannesburg is with City to City.
29 Mar 2008	We studied flight prices from Cape Town to Durban on the 25th April and it's not a good time to fly. If you're going to fly then Mango Airway offered the cheapest flight (and it was even cheaper if you used the promotion code - PNMSO1). A couple of other turnups for the books - the Holiday Inn Garden Court South Beach offered the cheapest night's accommodation in Durban (usually it's Road Lodge) and City to City offered the cheapest bus trip from Cape Town to Durban (SA Roadlink normally features). In a more typical result, Tempest Car Hire are still offering the cheapest car rentals.
22 Mar 2008	British Airways are smoking! Not only do they offer the most comfortable flight in South Africa, but now (again) the cheapest (even cheaper than Mango or Kulula). Well done, it's a no-brainer which airline to fly with. Tempest once again are offering the cheapest car rentals, City to City the cheapest bus trip and Road Lodge the cheapest night's accommodation.
15 Mar 2008	In the midst of record high oil prices, that little orange airline has set a record low flight price from Joburg to Durban. Well done Mango Airlines and congratulations to Hein Kaiser (and thank you South African taxpayers for subsidising these cheap flights). SA Roadlink offers the cheapst bus trip, Tempest the cheapest car hire and Road Lodge the cheapest night's accommodation in Durban.
