Good evening all!
We're travelling to South Africa in August (6th-25th) and I've been pricing up flights both with Expedia and VS directly.
We start in Durban and finish in Cape Town so I've priced up a multi-flight itinerary in Y on Expedia which works out at a very reasonable £631. That's LHR-JNB (VS), JNB-DUR (BA - Comair) The return from CPT is the same routing via JNB.
When I price up a standard return to JNB on the VS site I'm getting a price of around £950. No other flight websites seem to be offering the same combo deal that Expedia are. Is this something that happens regularly or is there a price error somewhere in their system? I just can't see how it's cheaper to book via a third party, save over £300 pp plus take an extra two fight sectors.
Many thanks for any advice!
Matt
