How long is the flight from Cape Town Intl. Airport to Mascot Airport?
The more prepared you are for your flight of about 23 hours and 26 minutes, the easier it’ll be. A neck pillow with all the bells and whistles, noise-cancelling headphones and a change of clothes should come on board with you when travelling from CPT to SYD.
What airlines fly direct from Cape Town Intl. Airport (CPT) to Kingsford Smith Intl. Airport (SYD)?
You won’t find any direct flights between Cape Town Intl. Airport (CPT) and Mascot Airport. But don’t bust out your tissue packet just yet. A few airlines will take you there with just one stopover, including Iberia, Qatar Airways and Emirates.
What are the cheapest days to fly?
Here’s an insider tip: Monday is typically the cheapest day to fly! Looking at flight demand on Wotif in 2021, we found that flights departing on a Monday generally had the lowest average price, closely followed by flights on a Saturday. You might want to think twice about flying on a Thursday though; generally, our data showed that it had the highest average ticket price.
What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?
Guess what? It turns out that early in the week is the best time to score the cheapest plane tickets. Looking at flight demand on Wotif in 2021, we found that flights purchased on a Monday had the lowest airfares on average. Booking your plane ticket on the weekend also seems to score pretty good deals. However, airfares purchased on a Friday generally have a higher than average ticket value, so you might want to prepare your budget if you’re booking on that day.
What is the cheapest month to fly?
When comparing airfares booked through Wotif in 2021, our data shows February is one of the cheapest months to fly. On the other hand, the month of December can be one of the most expensive times to travel, with the highest average ticket price, so it’s best to get in early if December is your preferred travel month.
How far in advance can you book a flight?
Trying to figure out how early you should book your flight? It’s possible to start comparing international airfares on Wotif up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to Wotif’s 2021 flight demand trends, you can bag a bargain with some of the cheapest airfares appearing just 1 week prior to travel.*According to flight demand on Wotif.com from January to December 2021.
