London flight prices
Hopefully we'll be back to exploring London's magical streets soon! South Africa is currently on the UK's Red List, which means only British nationals are allowed to travel from South Africa to the UK and then they have to complete 10 days quarantine in a hotel. There are no direct flights connecting South Africa to the UK currently.

*This is not an offer, but merely a snapshot of cheapest airfares as we saw them. There was very limited availability (don't expect it to be on every date, it was the cheapest we could find) when we checked & prices may have increased already. Click through the link on the price to check whether the price is still available. Remember to change class once page has loaded to check prices for Premium Economy and Business Class. For Direct Fligth prices, select direct flights once page has loaded.

Sad to hear about the Upton Hall Guest House on Eastbourne Street in Durban closing its door due to "the economic environment and spiralling costs".

Are you flying to New York? British Airways & Virgin Atlantic have cancelled a large number of flights to Boston & New York, as a result of the winter storm.

Emirates special fares when you book flights for 2 before 11th February 2013* (20% off Business Class or 15% off Economy Class) when you travel between the 5th April and 31st May, to any of their selected destinations.

To book this special, add SAVLD13 in the Promo Code field when you search for flights.
