FlySafair has announced the addition of an additional flight to their existing route between OR Tambo International Airport in Johannesburg and Bram Fisher International Airport in Bloemfontein.

Currently the budget airline offers Friday and Sunday flights between the two cities.

The flight will depart OR Tambo International Airport at 14:30 and take an hour and 10 minutes.

Tickets start at R950 one way.

FLYSAFAIR WAS AWARDED THE TITLE OF WORLD’S THE MOST ON-TIME LOW-COST CARRIER

The distance between OR Tambo and Bram Fisher airports, should you wish to drive, is 425km and would take an estimated four hours and 10 minutes to complete.

“After a year of regional expansion, we are taking this year to look internally and focus on optimising our existing routes and processes,” said Kirby Gordon, Chief Marketing Officer at FlySafair.

“We are pleased by the demand we have seen on this short route and look forward to the opportunity to provide consumers with additional flight options.”
