Is it cheaper to buy a plane ticket from KGL to JNB last minute?
Being the spontaneous type is a terrific way to travel the globe, but it isn't always the wisest method to pick up a bargain fare. Think about booking your Kanombe Intl. Airport to JNB journey well in advance rather than waiting until the last minute. Based on flight pricing and demand studies in 2022, we have found that the best time to book domestic flights is between 28 – 35 days ahead of the departure date, and international flights three to four months in advance. We recommend saving that spontaneity for when you get to your destination!
