Cheap Flights Africa For The Lowest Possible Price

Cheap flights africa may seem like the impossible dream to you but if you follow three simple rules when booking your tickets you can make sure that you get the best possible price.

I've flown to Africa often to go on safari or visit family and I make sure I follow the rules every time.

There's almost nothing I hate more than finding out later I could have gotten a fly africa ticket cheaper if I had just followed some simple guidelines.

It doesn't take very long and the savings could be as much as the difference between a flophouse and more luxurious accommodation once you get there.

I've seen as much as a 50% difference in price in some cases.

The Secret to Cheap Flights Africa

Before you book your flight tickets, do yourself a big favour savings wise and run through the following 3 rules:

1. Use the national african airlines for the country you are travelling to.

Nine times out of ten this will be cheaper than using any other airline. Why? Because of economies of scale.

The national carrier should be handling more passengers to and from the country than any other airline and they can pass along the cost savings in the form of cheap tickets to africa to be more competitive.

2. Fly to the main international airport.

Even if the destination you are going to is not close to the international airport (most African countries only have one international airport), you can always travel from there using local transport than paying extra for a stopover flight.

It's always worth doing that calculation. African currencies are a lot weaker than most Northern hemisphere currencies so travel within the country will probably work out cheaper. Make sure you measure it against the inconvenience factor though.

Here are the names of the main international airports in various African countries:

kenya airports / tanzania airports / south african airports / zambia airports / namibia airports / zimbabwe airports / uganda airports / gambia airports / malawi airports / madagascar airports

3. It pays to shop around.

Booking your flights to Africa will be cheaper if you do it over the internet in most cases. No surprises there.

But don't just buy at the first site you tap your flight details into. Some of the internet retailers have special promotions running every now and again. So look around for bargains. It will save you money to do that little bit of extra research.
