Skywise Cheap Flights from Johannesburg to Cape Town

Skywise Airline, which will be launched shortly by the founders of 1time Airlines, has suggested that it will offer ticket prices for Skywise cheap flights from Johannesburg to Cape Town for around 25% less than its low cost airline competitors such as Kulula.com and Mango Airlines.

Cheap return flights from Johannesburg to Cape Town currently cost between R1800 and R2200, and a 25% reduction would place ticket costs for a return journey in the region of R1500 (i.e. around R750 each way).

Following the departure of 1time from the local low cost carrier market, the remaining no-frills airlines had less competition and were therefore able to charge higher prices, resulting in customers being required to pay more for their domestic flights.

The addition of Skywise to the range of options for South African local travellers will introduce competition which will ultimately benefit consumers, by forcing airlines to vie for business instead of comfortably enjoying the monopoly and putting pressure on passengers through high airfare costs.
