Frequently asked questions

Can I cancel my flight booking to Africa due to COVID-19?
Our Customer Service Portal is where you can get important information about canceling or changing your flight due to COVID-19. Before reserving your tickets, it’s a good idea to read the terms and conditions of your chosen airline too.
What's the best way to find cheap flights to Africa that have flexible change policies?
At Expedia, we’ve been channeling our inner Olympic gymnast to offer you the most flexible fares in town. Just click on “No change fee” under the “Flexible change policies” heading to find your perfect flight to Africa.
What are some of the general tips for travelers to Africa during the COVID-19 outbreak?
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, traveling today comes with more challenges. Cast your eye over these helpful tips before jumping on your plane to Africa:

  • Before committing to anything, find out if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by reviewing official government websites.
  • Requirements state you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. You should be prepared to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA employee.
  • Avoid handing your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee. Instead, position your pass on the reader and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you’ll need to take it out of your bag for screening.
  • Remove personal items from your pockets, like your keys, phone and wallet, and place them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will reduce handling during the screening process.
  • Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it’s less likely a TSA employee will need to open your bag for inspection.

How can I find cheap tickets to Africa?
You’ll always score an amazing deal with Expedia, but our “flexible dates” search function makes it that much easier. Enter your preferred travel date, then click on the flexible dates box above to reveal the cheapest prices for nearby days. NZ$1,542 was the lowest price for a flight to Africa in the last seven days.
When is the cheapest time to fly to Africa?
Consider traveling earlier in the week to score the best fare to Africa. Tuesday is usually the most cost-effective day to fly, with Monday a close second. Saturday often has the highest ticket prices. This is because many people prefer to kick off their vacation on a weekend.
What are the best things to do in Africa?

  • With so many fantastic things to do and see in Cape Town, it’s little wonder lots of visitors start their Africa trip in this vibrant city. Spend your first day or so visiting leading attractions like Table Mountain before traveling to some of this location’s lesser-known gems.
  • When it comes to planning your getaway, keep in mind that Cape Town is known for its mediterranean climate. It’s a good idea to check the highs and lows before you head off so you have an idea of what to expect.
  • Approximately 97 kilometres to the east of Cape Town, Worcester also deserves to be on your itinerary. Renowned sights at this destination include Willow Creek Olive Estate — be sure to check it out.

What months are the cheapest to book a flight to Africa?
Reserve your ticket in February for bargain flight deals to Africa. The month of December is known as the most expensive time to purchase a fare.
