Frequently asked questions

Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from Chek Lap Kok Intl. Airport to Cape Town Intl. Airport last minute?
Booking your journey from Hong Kong Intl. Airport (HKG) to Cape Town Intl. Airport (CPT) at the last minute could save you a tidy sum if you get lucky and find a good deal. However, airfares usually don’t get cheaper closer to the departure date. If you hold out, flights could also be booked out or the best seats taken (because who wants the middle seat?). If you’d rather err on the side of caution, book well in advance of when you want to leave. Remember that some of the most awesome deals can be found up to a year in advance. If your favorite airline hasn’t released its airfares yet, check back regularly as offers are updated on Expedia constantly.
