Kulula R319 Lanseria - DUR

7 May 2010 flights surveyed on 9 Apr 2010 South Africa Travel Online

[Remember that from the 1st May 2010, all flights to and from Durban International will operate out of
King Shaka International Airport north of Durban. Sad that the Government wont sell Durban Airport to Comair (it's scared of competition for King Shaka), then we might see even lower flight prices to Durban than R319]

Today I write to you from a hot and humid Victoria Falls and bring to your attention an even hotter flight price of R319 from Lanseria to Durban. We were just doing our normal flight surveys and spotted a R319 price from Lanseria to Durban on the 7th May (leaving at 22:30). Of course there's no guarantee the price will still be there when you book, but a look at Kulula's bargain browsa in May indicates there may be a fair bit of availability from Lanseria to Durban.

South Africa - "worst trip of my life"

Naomi was dispatched to Cape Town and Johannesburg by Marie Claire UK, to take photographs for a story about the sex industry and the Fifa World Cup.

• The wind in at JFK was "howling at 60 miles per hour", so all flights were grounded. "I figured I should just go home and return the next day as I would never make my connection in Amsterdam. KLM refused to let me change so 6 hours and a few Johnny Walker Blacks later I boarded the flight. Obviously I didn’t make the Cape Town flight, but I had expected a hotel voucher, uh uh. As this was due to Mother Nature KLM wasn’t responsible to put passengers up, this after I happily offered to stay home".

• " I was shocked to realize I had been robbed of a tidy sum of cash I had left in my room for safekeeping. Ha! I feel awful as I’m sure whoever took it was desperate but hey, just cause I’m from North America doesn’t make me flush."

• "Got to see penguins while being exfoliated by the sand being whipped by the crazy strong winds." 

• "That night I was to shoot streetwalkers with an assistant arranged for me by a professor at the University in Cape Town. Not only did my assistant show up almost an hour late to the wrong location, they bailed on me early without having actually shot one photo! A complete waste of time as I couldn’t shoot on my own as it’s too dangerous to be out with a camera alone at night (and money, I had bought him dinner after all). In all my years doing this I’ve never experienced anything like this. "

• "Yesterday morning I was awoken at 7 am (having been asleep for only a couple of hours) by the owner of a strip joint I was photographing at the night before in Joburg. Ends up she was tipped off by one of her staff that I may be an imposter sent from a rival club to pose as a photographer to spy on her club." 

• "And now my flight back to NY has been delayed from 6:30 pm to 2:30 am. I actually broke down and started to weep in the airport. Didn’t get me on an earlier flight but did get me in the lounge so I can drink luke warm champagne."
