Kulula Airline is once again in the lead for the cheapest one-way fare to Durban. I have found that flying from/to Lanseria works out a bit cheaper than flying from/to OR Tambo International Airport. If you need to hire a car for your stay in Durban, Budget Car Rental is offering the cheapest car hire for R160 per day.

The bus and train fares have either increased or remained constant. Shosholoza Meyl have released their new pricing for April 2012 and an economy class ticket will cost you R130pp and sleeper class, R290pp.

The below survey looks at flight prices from Johannesburg to Durban on 27 April 2012, leaving Jo'burg between the times of 17h29 and 20h36. The prices below are subject to change and availability is, naturally, limited.
