CPT - DUR Mango is cheapest |
24 May 2013 flights |
In this weeks' survey, the cheapest flight on the Cape Town to Durban route was offered by Mango with their Friday afternoon flight priced at R1 063 when we checked (prices will change). Shosholoza Meyl's train services were the cheapest option for travel when we checked. With the current bus driver strikes taking place in South Africa, opting for train travel would be a safer option than bus travel from Cape Town to Durban at this stage. For car rental in Durban, be sure to check Car Trawler who offered the most affordable rates for the weekend's rental.
Take a scenic walk from uShaka Marine World to the Moses Mabhida Stadium at the East Coast Radio Big Walk. Choose to walk any one of the four distances taking place on the day: the 5km, 10km, 15km or 20km.

Below we sampled prices of one-way flights, coach trips and train trips from Cape Town to Durban, leaving Cape Town between 13h44 and 20h31 on Friday the 24th of May 2013. Please note that all prices below were valid at the time of capture, but that they cannot be guaranteed by us and are subject to availability.
