London to Cape Town flights - |
surveyed |
The last two times we examined the London to Cape Town flight route, a British Airways flight and an Air France flight were the cheapest, this time it's Qatar Airways' turn - they're offering a London to Cape Town flight for £541.
We looked at flights leaving London for Cape Town on the 3rd January 2007 (where airlines easily faciliated it, we checked the flight prices around this date) and returning from Cape Town for London on the 24th January 2007.
