Flight times are estimated from the distance, so treat them as "about" — they assume a direct routing, which not every pair has. Fares are shown in ZAR, converted at the European Central Bank's daily rate. A dash means we have not seen a fare on that route yet.

The best months come from the destination's own climate and are the same wherever you fly from. What changes with your origin is the distance, the fare, and the public holidays that crowd a place out.
