Cheapest time to fly to South Africa

Hi everyone,

In the past I have used a travel website where you tell them the airport you want to fly to and you can put in any date range eg from June to Dec. They then contact you throughout that period whenever there is a reduction in the fare. I want to visit my Grandchildren in South Africa and don't mind when I go, just want the cheapest deal but I've forgotten the website and all the ones I've looked at want specific dates. Thanks in advance for any help.

    travelocity used to have fare calendars, not sure if there .com site still does.

    The cheapest flights are usually on Air Namibia from Gatwick to Windhoek, KLM can be good aswell.

    Many thanks. I'd looked on Travelocity.co.uk as I thought that was the site I'd used before. They don't seem to do it now but as you suggested the .com site does.
