Top tips for finding cheap flights to South Africa

  • As the largest airport in Canada, Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) can get you to almost any part of the world without a problem. This includes South Africa, as airlines like Delta, Ethiopian Air, KLM, SWISS, Turkish Airlines, and United Airlines all have flights that travel from Toronto to South Africa.
  • Before you decide which airline to fly with from Toronto to South Africa, you'll need to figure out which airport in South Africa you wish to travel to. Cape Town International Airport (CPT) is a great option for those visiting Cape Town or another part of the southern portion of South Africa. O. R. Tambo International Airport (JNB), meanwhile, serves both Johannesburg and Pretoria, while King Shaka International Airport (DUR) is situated on the eastern coast of South Africa.
  • There aren't any airlines that provide nonstop flights from Toronto to South Africa, but there are some that can set you up with flights that will make just one stop between them. KLM, for example, has a one-stop flight plan that will get you to South Africa in under 22 hours. Some airlines that have flights with two stops will come close to doubling that travel time.
  • It'll typically make the most sense for you to fly from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) to South Africa, but there is also another option in Toronto if you would like to explore it. Some airlines have flights that depart from Billy Bishop Toronto City Airport (YTZ) to South Africa. SWISS is one of the airlines that can set you up with options.
  • When you fly from Toronto to South Africa, you'll need to arrive at the airport at least 2 hours in advance and maybe even 3 hours to give yourself plenty of extra time.

Prefer not to have an almost 3 hour delay with useless communication that wasn't accurate.

Boarding was smooth and efficient. The only food was some pretzels, but it was a short flight. Not much to order if you were hungry.

Seats very comfortable; service efficient and pleasant; flight was on-time; boarding organized.

Starlink is great Crew was polite Business class didn’t get a welcome drink just water and snacks were ok

Hopped on time for the flight only to get deplaned and delayed another 2.5 hours.

Flight attendants had a little attitude. Food tastes no good.

Very poor. The flight was delayed from Toronto because some forget to do there job . I got to my connecting gate in San Francisco 10 minutes before the departure.but this didn’t let me board even though the flight was still there for an other 30 minutes. The the gentleman at the unite airline desk told me that they usually wait for passengers but air Canada called and told them not to we I been rerouted to Manila instead of Hong Kong . In San Francisco they mad me check in my carryon bag . I was told the it will directly go yo ho chi minn cuyt but I was told that by the Vietnams airline desk that’s not there I’m 10 hours behind my scheduled flight and looks like I I’m going without baggage. I don’t have a chance of catching ..

l really enjoy very much the flight was very pleasant

Quick and seamless boarding. No entertainment but fast Starlink wifi for this short trip and the staff was really friendly.

Efficient all round, very good crew. Short flight so the food, of course, was just snacks

It was a great experience for my first time flying with this airline. I will be flying with them a lot more now. Plane crew was amazing.

We had a good flight experience with this airline despite reading many negative comments

The crew was not helping us in the airports ..Very bad experience..the washrooms are not meeting the expectations..need more good service... The hotel service was good but there is a very long wait time which wasted time to go through..

The Boeing 737 MAX on this route, flown in the middle of the night, is an UTTER FAILURE for business travellers. The whole point of business travel is to arrive alert and recover from travel quickly, and this little aeroplane with its quarter recline uncomfortable business seats does nothing for that. It’s a small step up from economy in that you have decent legroom, but that’s it. Absolute margin at the cost of the traveller.

POSITIVES The hostesses were mostly pleasant, NEGATIVES The full flight wifi was horrible, hardly able to use it. My charger port was not working which made me use my neighbour's port which resulted in an accident which ruined her flight. During dinner, meat ran out when the cart got to us forcing us to eat vegetarian which was not great. We watched everyone around us eating meat. My wifi did not transfer to the second leg of my trip as they promised as they changed the plane. I was thrown off the window seat I booked for the 2nd leg of my journey as they changed planes, all done at my expense. This was not a cheap flight ($2600) which i hurriedly had to book to attend my mother's funeral who passed away suddenly. I was honestly disappointed with the whole saga as I heard Ethiopian Airlines was one of Africa's best.

The use of a domestic carrier without entertainment was disappointing and a let down

There where no ear phones provided and the food needs to improve.

Very bad, flying business but have no benefit of it. the crew was rude and I was not offered any food at all. I called them 3 times but none of them came. I was sick at that time and none of them helped me. an hour before landing they came to offer me food. it was too late because my stomach was already very painful and I was vomiting. I nearly can’t walk to immigration. I was forced to cancel my connecting flight and had to stay overnight in stockholm to recover my health.

I was a good, but long trip. The airline did a good job. I would use them again.

The food could be better, the beef was quite tough. The crew were friendly and helpful on this flight, which has not being my experience on other Ethiopian flights.
