How to get the best deal on a Amsterdam — Johannesburg ticket

  • For flights covering nearly 9,000 km, we recommend booking tickets at least 8–12 weeks before departure to secure the best fares for long-haul travel.
  • Compare direct flights with connecting options from AF or DL — often, connecting routes through Paris or other hubs can offer significant savings.
  • Use the price trend chart on this page: data shows that mid-week departures are often cheaper than flights on Fridays and Sundays.
  • Pay attention to baggage rules for full-service carriers, as on such long routes, the fee for an extra bag at the airport can be substantial.
