Hello

First time poster, long time lurker.

Intially this is what we're looking at :
Travel Out : 6th August
Depart : Manchester
Arrive : Jo'Burg

Depart : 27th August
Depart : Jo'Burg
Arrive : Manchester

No of People : 4

Really looking for the cheapest if possible :money:. Thanks in advance

    From Manchester it is cheaper to fly on 7th August by £75 per person.
    27th August is the cheapest day to fly back.

    I got on those dates £435 with Air France - But that was just on the ITA matrix, so can and should easily be beaten.


    From London i got £403 on Afriqiyah.

    I would concentrate my initial efforts though from MAN on Air France, KLM, Lufthansa, BA
  • Sorry, but I'm missing something here.

    The ITA Matrix - where can I find it?

    Thanks again in advance. :beer:

    Just make sure that you put in the airport code (IATA) and you can search more than one airport at a time.

    For example:

    Outbound
    LON;MAN;LBA

    Each separated by ; would serach from every airport in London, Manchester and Leeds.

    Good luck.

    I find that kayak.co.uk returns more reliable results.
