How to Go to Johannesburg

Ranked amongst the top 50 global cities of the world, Johannesburg is vastly connected with almost every major city of the world, which makes it easier for tourists to figure out how to reach Johannesburg. Though, there used to be direct flights from India to Johannesburg, that were operating from Mumbai, but because of lack of demand the route has been redirected via Abu Dhabi. Now, there is no other way to reach Jo’burg from India directly, but one needs to hop on break journeys from other nearby cities. One can cover the India to Johannesburg distance of around 6960 kms in the minimum time frame of 11 hours while boarding a one-stop flight.

Global access to Johannesburg is via its O. R. Tambo International Airport located in Gauteng province at a distance of 30 minutes away from the city centre. Most of the international flights to South Africa land on this airport and some do in Cape Town and Durban as well. But O. R. Tambo is one of the busiest airports of Africa, and there are more than enough cheap flights to Johannesburg from different Indian cities to help your commute.

Let’s take a look at how one could travel to Johannesburg while boarding a flight from India.
